Take A Plant Leave A Plant is an online trading community for your cuttings, seedlings, seeds, or whatever plants you have laying around! We want to spread the love of plants to those who don't have access. Please, don't flip your plants here. Happy trading!

Take a plant, leave a plant. A community for trading plants, seeds, and cuttings.


Guidelines

  • Flair your post. For trade posts, flair your post with your country or state. For trade reviews, flair with "Trade Review." For discussions or questions, flair with "Discussion."

  • List what you have available to trade. Don't be vague about what you have (ie. "I have a lot of plants.")

  • Posts are for trades only - no mention of selling or buying in posts. If you want to buy or sell plants, please comment in the monthly sales thread. (Posts where users only need to pay shipping are an exception to this rule.)

  • Be kind. The strength of this community depends on kindness, respect, and honesty.

  • Read the trade safety guidelines. Try to abide by these guidelines to increase the chances of a successful trade.

  • Try to use a payment method with buyer protection, if purchasing plants. Payment methods like PayPal Goods and Services offer buyer protection.

  • Read the tips on shipping plants. These can increase the chance of a successful trade.

How to leave a user review

You can either make a post or make a comment to leave a user review. Do not do both for one review.

  • Make a post: Include the user's username and how many stars you wish to rate them in your post (photos are helpful to others, but optional).

  • Make a comment: Write a comment in the current "User Trade Reviews" thread. Similar to making a post, include their username and how many stars you wish to rate them.

You can give any value from 1 to 5. (1.5, 3.75, 4.99)

Negative reviews

In order to leave a negative review, you must show some proof (like a screenshot) that you have attempted to communicate with your trader partner about your dissatisfaction. Communication is important in this community, so it is prudent to see an attempt has been made to reach out about a bad trade.

Secret Planta Winter 2024

Hello! Did you miss me? We are back once again for Secret Planta Winter edition! Same as last year, we are only doing minimum price points.

Previous events: Secret Planta July 2020, Secret Planta Winter 2021, Secret Planta July 2021, Secret Planta Winter 2022, Secret Planta July 2022, Secret Planta Winter 2023.

THIS SWAP IS FOR ITEMS ONLY. Minimum price point must be met by only items. If you chose to ship plants, that does not factor into box price and ship at your own risk. Items can include (but not limited to) art, crafts, plant supplies, edible treats, pet supplies, books, stationary etc.

We are still opening up to the UK and Canada (however the groups may be removed if there are not enough participants). Please select the appropriate group so we can get you matched up with people in your country.

We only have ONE minimum price point.

Prices are based off of what will be going inside the box and does not include shipping. We will require a picture of the stuff going inside the package before the santa ships but this is still β€œjoin at your own risk” type of event.

First time/no reviews traders at time applications close will be required to send a deposit to u/infinitymidnight which will be refunded upon arrival of the sent package. If you have participated in any previous Secret Planta, you are not required to send a deposit. The hosts will reach out to those that require a deposit once applications end.

The deposit will be used to send a gift to the giftee if the santa could not complete the event/ghosts. More info will be sent to those that require deposits closer to the start date:

$20US group Plants and Items- $15

20Β£ UK group Plants and Items - 15Β£

20C$ Canada group Plants and Items - 15C$

We will try to match people so that you will potentially get something off your wishlist but it is not guaranteed that someone will have what you want. Please do not get upset if you do not get something off your wishlist. You must meet the minimum price point, if you want to send above the price point, do not expect your own santa to do the same.

While the hosts will do everything to the best of their abilities to prevent scammers, this is a join at your own risk and you'll agree that the hosts will not be liable for unsent/damaged/lost packages.

Hosts:

All groups - u/infinitymidnight

Important dates - Please place in your calendar if applying

Applications are due Friday, (Last day to withdraw) - Dec 1st, 2024

Deposits are due by Monday - Dec 8th, 2024

TAPLAP Secret Planta Discord invite: https://discord.gg/UAUGEmq Important announcements will be mainly sent via discord. Please join and change your nickname on the server to match your reddit username. If there is no reply to discord or reddit message, the hosts reserve the right to leave a low review. PLEASE CHECK YOUR MESSAGES.

You can meet your fellow redditors that are trading in the discord, we just ask that you don’t discuss who you received as your match and what you wrote that you can offer. Talking about plant/items you want is absolutely okay! Don’t talk to your match about their gifts. If you need to ask them something, please contact your host to pass along the message.

APPLICATION LINK: https://forms.gle/PsNyTffQ2zkZnibY9


Once you fill the app out, and application closes, you are obligated to complete the event. Failure to complete the event can lead to a low review and black listing from all events.
