Shipping Info. & Polices
Please note : All plants are shipped from our main shipping location Fallbrook, CA. 92028 and any shipping charges are close to actual current cost to your location by weight.

Plants are sent almost bare root
Plants are shipped almost bare root minus most soil, not just to reduce shipping weight but also to minimize any plants from being damaged if a large heavy soil ball were to shift in transit. Also any pots/containers are not included. If you need plastic pots we can ship them to you for an additional fee separately by parcel post or first class mail.

Plants maybe be sent in sections
Some large specimens maybe divided to insure safe shipping in transit, so a large multi-clump plant(s) maybe divided into 2 or 3 sections etc. if necessary, but we will always try to ship plants whole or in there entirety if possible.

Shipping is by USPS
Plants are primarily shipped by USPS.com Priority mail service, when plants ship you will receive tracking info. by email notifications. Most deliveries by mail across the U.S. & P.R. can take 3 to 5 business days from us to you.
