Shipping Information

Plants, Bulbs and Bareroot Perennials:

Plants, fertilizer and other supplies* will be shipped at the proper planting time for your area of the country during the shipping timeframes outlined below. Shipping for most items begins in early September, when the weather is cooler and your plants have the best chance for success. We do have a selection of established plants available for shipment in the summer. For information on what to do when your plants arrive, see our planting guide here.

*Fertilizer and other supplies ordered apart from plant orders are typically shipped within 5 business days.

Orders for e-gift certificates will send to the provided email address within an hour. Please Note: You will receive Order Confirmation and Shipping Confirmation emails when your e-gift certificate order is received. However, the confirmation messages may suggest that your gift will be shipped to your billing address. Not to worry—we will only send your e-gift certificate to the email address provided.

Other Notes:

We aim for your order to be in your hands at the ideal time to plant, every time. Our growers must anticipate their supply based on the season they expect. Our experts predict weather patterns as best they can to set suitable shipping windows for each growing zone. However, as any gardener knows, nature is not so predictable. The type of product you order, along with the weather in your area or ours, may affect the anticipated shipping schedule.

Based on the contents of your order, we always strive to ship the order complete and as early as possible. However, sometimes this may result in a delay of some items that are ready before others. Our customers have suggested that they would rather wait to receive their order as complete as possible. If you would like to receive part of your order ahead of time, please reach out to our customer service department and we can accommodate. Orders with large items may be shipped in more than one package. There is no extra charge if your order requires more than one package.

Bareroot perennials, trees and shrubs are kept in the nursery row until fully dormant. This promotes optimum transit conditions and provides your new plant with the best opportunity for success in your garden.

Trees and other oversize items cannot be shipped to PO boxes.

After you place your order, you will receive an email confirmation with the details of your order and a delivery estimate. You will also receive an email notification when your order ships with an updated arrival estimate and tracking information.

At any time after you place your order you can check your order status on our website using your email or the account number found in your order confirmation email.

Please note that we cannot ship outside of the 48 contiguous states.

Shipping Charges:

In all cases, we choose the fastest, most efficient way to send your order. Our shipping rates are calculated based on our average shipping costs per order. These charges simply cover the processes we have in place to ensure the safety and health of your order as it goes through the postal system.
