Shipping Policy

Plants are seasonal items. We begin shipping plants, with the exception of onion transplants, in mid-March. Plant shipping is paused during the heat of the summer, then resumed in early September through late November. If you order plants in the shipping off-season, they will automatically be back-ordered and shipped during our shipping seasons. We use primarily USPS for shipping. If you prefer another carrier, please contact us before placing an order and we will quote the price of your order plus shipping.

Perishable items will ship separately from seeds and products.

Please use the ORDER NOTES field at checkout to give special shipping instructions.

Tracking Your Order - A tracking number will be emailed to you the day your order is shipped.

Plant Guarantee
We guarantee every plant is healthy and viable when it leaves our greenhouses. Once the plant is out of our possession, we cannot guarantee the plant's survival. Neglect, poor watering schedules, or purchasing a plant outside the recommended growing zone are not included with any guarantee.

The customer is responsible for choosing a plant suitable for the climate in which it will be grown and for requesting any delayed ship date due to weather conditions.

Damaged branches and leaves that occur during shipping are not considered defective or damaged, as this is normal wear and tear during shipping that plants can easily recover from.

For claims, notify us via email within 24 hours of delivery about any issues with the plant(s) you received. Please include a picture of both the plant and the packaging. Beyond 24 hours from date of receipt, perishable items are non-refundable.

Receiving Your Order
Please open the package upon receipt and inspect the content against the packing slip. Notify us immediately of any missing or damaged items and provide a photo of both the plant and the packaging.
