How do I add a basil plant to my curbside order
Asked by Jackie August 7, 20201
AnswerIf your store that you are purchasing the plant from is on the list of stores for curbside pickup, you would order as normal and designate the order as curbside pickup. Curbside Pickup is available only in those select stores daily until 6 p.m. (you can go online to see what stores have curbside pickup) Valid only at the specific store selected by customer when placing order and only for orders confirmed via Order Pickup Notification email or text. All of those options should be available when placing the order on line.
