Welcome to Healthy Plant Shop (“we”, “us”, or “our”). Just as we nurture our climbing roses and David Austin roses with care, we treat your personal information with the same level of attention and protection. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you visit our website plantseedsus.com.

1. Information We Collect

Like the careful selection of our hybrid tea roses and perennials, we only collect information necessary to provide our services:

2. How We Use Your Information

We use your information with the same care we give to our house plants:

  • To process your orders for shrub roses, perennials, and other products

  • To improve our website and product offerings (like optimizing our climbing roses selection)
  • To send you relevant gardening tips and offers (only if you opt-in)
