If the week contains a holiday, we'll check UPS to make sure there is at least a one day buffer in shipping. If there is not, you'll receive your plants the next available full week. If the Holiday is in the middle of week(July 4) , we may skip the week. We try to get the plants to you as soon as possible, but setting in the sun in Tuscon or snow in Denver is not something our plants need to experience.
Most everywhere in the Continental United States except we DO NOT SHIP to the Southeast, Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, South Carolina, Texas, Tennessee or West Virginia. The plants hate living there and are a difficult mail order into there.
We will attempt to ship to Oregon and Virginia but there is a $25/per order phytosanitary certificate charge from the California Department of Food and Agriculture demonstrating that the plants are free of brown snails that needs to be acknowledged before we can ship your plants. This is required by certain individual states.
Handling: $18 per order. This charge is for gathering, bagging, boxing plants and driving the 25 miles into UPS.
Shipping: Per plant, by weight and depending on your shipping location. The plants weigh between 2-5 pounds each, each species has it's own assigned weight. We have changed our shopping cart to use UPS to automatically calculate the shipping cost for each order.
Note: In the shopping cart, the $18 handling charge is listed within the shipping charge. For example:
| Subtotal | 39.95 ( cost of 5 plants at $7.99 each) |
| Shipping | 32.46 ( This is the $ 18 handling plus the $14.46 shipping to 93453 California)) |
| Tax | 5.25 |
| Total | 77.66 |
There is only sales tax if you are located in California. The sale tax is ours, presently 8.25%.

save card information after the shipment is complete.

We ship via United Parcel Service. The gallon sized plants are removed
from the pot, the root ball bagged, the plants boxed, and shipped. We
do not ship bare root.
