Introduce a touch of exotic elegance to your home with the Brachychiton Rupestris, commonly known as the Australian Bottle Tree. This stunning indoor houseplant is celebrated for its unique bottle-shaped trunk, making it a striking conversation piece. Perfect for plant enthusiasts looking to add an unusual and beautiful specimen to their collection, the Australian Bottle Tree is a low-maintenance choice that brings nature's wonder indoors.

Features:

  • Distinctive Trunk Shape: The swollen, bottle-like trunk not only catches the eye but also serves as a water storage system, making it highly drought-tolerant.

Care Instructions:

  • Light: Thrives in bright, indirect sunlight. Can tolerate some direct sunlight but avoid prolonged exposure to harsh midday sun.
  • Watering: Allow the soil to dry out between waterings. Water sparingly to prevent overwatering, which can lead to root rot.
  • Soil: Prefers well-draining potting mix. A cactus or succulent mix works well.
  • Humidity: Tolerates average household humidity. No special humidity requirements.
  • Temperature: Prefers average room temperatures between 65-75°F (18-24°C). Protect from cold drafts and sudden temperature changes.

Height and Growth:

  • Mature Height: Typically reaches up to 3-6 feet indoors, making it suitable for various indoor spaces.
  • Growth Rate: Slow-growing, ensuring it remains a manageable size for indoor environments.

Shipping & Delivery

Shipping live plants isn’t easy, but we put immense care into packing each plant before it journeys through the mail system. Upon arrival, we recommend removing the packing moss to help acclimate the plant to its new home right away.

Due to strict shipping restrictions, we cannot ship live plants to Alaska, California, or Hawaii. We cannot ship to PO boxes.

If something doesn’t look right when you open your package,
please let us know and we will take care of it.

Return Policy

We accept returns on all unopened, unused non-plant items within 30 days of purchase or shipment when accompanied by an original receipt or packing list.

Because live plants are subject to variable conditions once they leave our store, we’re not able to offer a guarantee or refund on plant material. For online customers, please contact us within 48 hours of delivery if you are unsatisfied with your plant purchase.
