Shipping & Returns

For orders not picked up on site or delivered on our trucks, we use FedEx.  Your plant material is carefully wrapped and sent in boxes, or on crated pallets for larger orders.

What To Do With Your Plants On Arrival

When your shipment arrives, if the boxes are damaged, please check the plants before you sign for their release. If there is damage to the plant material, please make record of it with the delivery service before signing the release. If necessary, contact us for advice on whether or not to reject the shipment.   Once you have accepted delivery, check to see if the plant material needs watering. Place them in an environment conducive to the needs of the particular plant and/or weather conditions until they are planted or placed into inventory.

OUR GUARANTEE 

We use extreme care to keep our stock true to name and to ship only items that are healthy and living. On proper proof, we will replace all stock that may prove otherwise, or refund the amount paid. We will not be responsible for plants that die because of mistreatment, lack of water, over-watering, poor soil, or any other conditions beyond our control. Additionally, we will not be liable for any amount greater than the original purchase price of the plant material. We also cannot be held responsible for mistreatment of plants by any commercial shipping companies. We have no control over their treatment of the plants. NO CLAIMS WILL BE CONSIDERED UNLESS MADE IN WRITING WITHIN TEN DAYS FROM RECEIPT OF SHIPMENT.  PLEASE PROVIDE PHOTO DOCUMENTATION.
