Preferred shipping requests
- To request an ASAP/following-week ship date, you must place your order on or before Friday of the previous week. I can no longer process orders on Monday mornings for shipment the same day, we cannot guarantee same-week shipping for orders placed on Saturdays and Sundays.
- To request that we add plants to an existing order, you must request the additional plants on or before Thursday of the week before your plants ship. We can’t add plants directly to a previous order, but we can combine multiple orders to ship at the same time. If your additional plants will fit in the same box as your previous order, we can adjust the shipping cost, but coordinating this adjustment takes a day. It’s no longer feasible to add plants to a shipment on the same day it’s scheduled to ship.
If you have a preferred ship date or week, please include it in the Order Comments section during checkout. We will do our best to accommodate requests when possible based on weather and shipping schedules.
You will be charged when your order is placed, not when your plants ship. Your plants will be marked as sold and reserved for your shipment.
We usually ship within two weeks, but high-volume periods in spring and fall may extend shipping times.
We ship Monday through Wednesday to help minimize stress on live plants. This helps avoid plants sitting in hot or cold delivery trucks or warehouses over a weekend and also helps your order arrive closer to the weekend, when many customers have more time to garden.
Why we do not offer free shipping
We believe our plant prices are competitive and straightforward. When businesses advertise “free shipping,” those costs are usually built into product pricing or covered in another way.
Our shipping rates are generated through UPS based on package weight and delivery zone. We pass along our discounted carrier rates to help keep shipping costs as low as possible.
No minimum order is required.
