    SHIPPING DETAILS

    Shipping Methods

    Orders will be shipped via FedEx Home Delivery.

    Orders are generally in route for 2-5 business days (depending on where you live).

     

    We are sticklers about packaging and shipping your order in a way that guarantees healthy plants upon arrival. If plants are damaged on arrival, just let us know and we'll send you new ones or offer a full refund.

     

    All of our plants are container grown and shipped with the soil and roots fully intact. We DO NOT ship your plants bare-root. Being shipped as a containered plant greatly reduces the risk of the plant not surviving the transit to your home.

    Arrives but not sure I can revive this one

    It arrived very dry & bunched together. I’ve soaked the root ball in water & planted it in a pot with the purchased starter fertilizer pouch. I’m watching closely hoping for the best.
