Our Guarantee

Upon Arrival

Open all boxes immediately upon arrival, allowing plants to ventilate. Some plants may arrive frozen, as they are stored in our coolers at 28⁰F. Allow to thaw before handling and potting.
Check shipment against packing slip. Reports any shortages and/or concerns to our office within 10 days.

Bare root perennials should be potted first. Store them at 35-40⁰F until time of potting.
Plugs should be stored in a warm greenhouse with adequate light until time for transplant.


Growing Tips

Soil:  Most perennials grow best in a well-drained soilless mix. Consult your local supplier for recommendations.
Watering:  Ensure that newly potted perennials are adequately moist, but water sparingly until signs of growth appear. Too much water early may cause root rot.

Light:  Provide good light for best growth. Most shade-loving perennials do not need to be shaded until late spring when light intensifies and temperatures increase.
Temperature:  Grow at 50⁰F minimum. Allow 6-8 weeks to finish.
Fertilizer:  Do not fertilize newly potted perennials until there are signs of growth. When shoots appear, fertilize at half strength.
Containers for clumps. Use quart containers for 1-2 eye or #2 perennials.
