Des Moines, IA experiences hot, humid summers and cold, dry winters. With such literally opposite climates throughout the year, Des Moines residents might find it difficult to add the best plants for the season. You no longer need to look further than Lively Root’s live plant delivery Des Moines service to bring the beauty (and health benefits) of nature indoors. Check out the Marginata Cane Dragon Tree (Dracaena), a plant lover’s favorite ornamental houseplants.  With its candelabra-shaped trunks and spiky, red-lined leaves, this variety is surprisingly easy to grow. You’ll likewise be a fan of the Watermelon Peperomia if you want a bold turn of colors and textures. Its leaves even look like tiny watermelons (hence, the name).

Because at Lively Root, we’re on a mission to inspire the kinds of green spaces that connect people and plants, we’ve made our live plant delivery Des Moines service as easy as 1… 2… 3… Not only do we currently ship to 48 states (like Iowa) within the United States (excluding Hawaii and Alaska), we ship free for standard delivery within 4-7 business days and at an additional cost for expedited or rush delivery.
