Refunds, Returns, Exchanges & Warranty
We want you to feel confident shopping with Bella Terra. Because we sell a mix of live plants, seasonal products, garden goods, equipment, and special-order items, return and warranty eligibility can vary by product.
Our General Policy
Please inspect your purchase promptly and contact Bella Terra Garden Center as soon as possible if there is a problem with your order.
Proof of purchase may be required for refunds, exchanges, warranty claims, or store credit.
Unused Retail Products
Unused, unopened, and resalable merchandise may be eligible for return or exchange within the applicable return period.
Live Plant Material
Live plants are perishable products and are handled differently from general retail merchandise. See the plant policy below.
Returns
Eligible merchandise should be returned in its original condition with packaging, tags, and receipt or order confirmation whenever possible.

- Unused and unopened garden supplies

- Unused garden décor and accessories
- Unopened fertilizers, nutrients, and plant-care products
- Unused tools and accessories

- Used or damaged products

Live Plant Returns
Plants are living products, and their condition can change quickly depending on watering, planting, weather, soil, sun exposure, transportation, and care after leaving the Garden Center.
Please Inspect Plants Before Leaving
We encourage customers to inspect plant material at pickup or purchase. If you believe a plant is damaged, incorrect, or unhealthy when received, please contact us promptly and provide photos when possible.
Plant Return Eligibility
Plant returns, replacements, or credits are reviewed individually. Plants that have been improperly planted, neglected, overwatered, underwatered, damaged by weather, animals, pests, chemicals, or site conditions may not qualify for refund or replacement.
Important
Plant appearance naturally varies. Differences in bloom stage, color intensity, size, shape, or seasonal appearance are not necessarily defects.
Exchanges
Eligible products may be exchanged for another item of equal or greater value. Any price difference must be paid at the time of exchange.
If the replacement product costs less, the remaining balance may be refunded or issued as store credit depending on the original payment method and product eligibility.
Refunds
Approved refunds are generally issued to the original form of payment. Processing times may vary depending on the customer’s bank or payment provider.
Online Orders
If an online order is canceled before it has been prepared, loaded, delivered, or otherwise fulfilled, it may be eligible for refund.
Orders containing perishable, special-order, clearance, or custom items may have additional restrictions.
Local Pickup Orders
Please review your order when picking it up. If an item is missing, incorrect, or damaged, notify our team before leaving whenever possible.
Orders not collected within the stated pickup window may be canceled, restocked, or handled according to product type and availability. Perishable plant material may not be refundable if an order is not picked up on time.
Bagged & Bulk Materials
Customers are responsible for confirming the material, quantity, and vehicle or trailer capacity before loading.
Bulk mulch, stone, soil, compost, sand, and similar materials are generally not returnable once they have been loaded, transported, dumped, mixed, or delivered.
Bagged materials may be eligible for return if unopened, undamaged, and in resalable condition.
Manufacturer Warranties
Some products sold by Bella Terra may include a manufacturer’s warranty. Warranty terms, coverage periods, exclusions, and claim procedures are determined by the manufacturer.
Bella Terra can help customers identify the appropriate warranty process, but manufacturer approval may be required before repair, replacement, or reimbursement.
Kress Products
Kress equipment, robotic mowers, batteries, chargers, and accessories may be covered by applicable Kress manufacturer warranties. Warranty eligibility depends on the product, registration, purchase date, use, and warranty terms in effect at the time of purchase.
Keep your receipt, serial number, and product documentation for any equipment warranty claim.
Warranty Exclusions
Unless otherwise covered by a manufacturer or written Bella Terra warranty, warranties generally do not cover damage caused by:
- Misuse or improper operation
- Improper installation
- Accidents or physical damage
- Neglect or lack of maintenance
- Weather, flooding, freezing, storms, or natural events
- Unauthorized modification or repair
- Normal wear and tear
- Use inconsistent with manufacturer instructions
