Tissue culture is a highly technical and biologically variable process. While we strive for a high standard of success:

  • We do not guarantee successful propagation or survival of any plant or culture.
  • Outcomes may vary due to plant genetics, environmental conditions, contamination risk, or other biological factors.
  • Clients acknowledge that propagation timelines may range from 3–12 months depending on species and maturity needs.

If you supply us with plant material for propagation:

  • You represent that you legally own or have rights to use and propagate that plant.
