SPECIAL WEATHER CONSIDERATIONS. Many plants will go dormant in the cold/dark months and we may ship plants while they’re dormant however, the plants are still alive, they’re just working on their root systems. It is normal and healthy for plants to go dormant, it helps ensure they have a long, happy and healthy life. If you receive a plant without leaves, or a pot of dirt, don’t worry your plant is dormant – if you’re still worried, just message us (photos of the plant are always helpful). CHECKOUT. Do not leave notes or special requests on your payment as we will NOT see them. If you have questions or a request, please message us directly. We specialize in unusual and obscure varieties of plants not offered at most garden centers. The Five Most Frequently Asked Questions: Q. How big are the plants? A. They are usually shipped in 6 oz. pots. In order to give you the most value for your money we try to keep our plants between 2.5 and 6 inches high because they will grow rapidly to full size after you receive them. This affords you the greatest value for your money and keeps your shipping costs to a minimum. Sizes vary by variety and are usually indicated in the ad. In order to get your plants to you in a timely fashion we will in rare cases ship plants that are smaller than indicated. These plants are an exceptional value and will soon grow to the size indicated and beyond. Q. How long will it take to receive my plants? A. Plants. Our goal is to ship plants within 7 – 10 days after we receive payment (or check clears.) 95% of shipments are within that time frame with over half being less than 10 days. (If your plants don’t arrive in this time period please email us if we haven’t emailed you first.) A. Plant Supplies. Usually ship in less than 10 days. If it will be longer we’ll contact you. Q.
