New introductions for 2010!
Join our e-mailing list to be notified when we make significant changes to the website. We assure you that mailings will be infrequent, tasteful and informative. If at any time you want to end your subscription, you need only click on the link at the bottom of each e-mail.
A warning about our shopping cart: Our shopping cart will only save your order for roughly an hour after you stop adding entries. We're sorry about this - we didn't know this when we used the provider we did. It can't be reset, and changing providers would mean recoding the entire website. So...if you like to mull over your order before you submit it, we suggest copying and saving it. You can re-enter it quite quickly from our Plants A-Z (Easy-Order) page.
QUANTITY DISCOUNTS
We are primarily a retail nursery, but we do offer some quantity discounts, as follows:
Any time you order 2 of an item that is grown in 8-oz or 14-oz pots, we will treat the pair as 1 item for shipping purposes. The shopping cart will not show this adjustment; we'll make it here, on your invoice, and e-mail you a copy when we confirm your order.
We discount shipping on orders over $300 that can be shipped via UPS Ground service. Because the amount of the discount varies with the contents of your order (bulky or not, easy to pack or not, etc) we will quote you a shipping cost when we confirm your order. In general, we just charge 15% of the plant total to ship these orders.
We are working to increase our offerings of cyclamen by the flat. These charming plants make wonderful underplantings among trees and shrubs, and we can produce them in large numbers, as we maintain our own stock plants and - most years - have lots of seed to work with. Check the Cyclamen page to see what's currently available.
NOTICES (please read before proceeding)
(1) Our shopping cart is not "automated" - it doesn't do anything other than collect your ordering information and deliver it to us. It does not reserve plants nor run charges. Thus, it is possible that something you successfully order will already be sold out, even though the website sends you an automated confirmation of the order. The effective recording of your order occurs here, where we reserve your plants and e-mail you a confirmation with an attached copy of your invoice.
(2) As always, you are welcome to submit partial orders and add to them until a few days before your shipping date. We will consolidate your orders, eliminate duplicate base shipping charges, and e-mail you a copy of your updated invoice each time you make a change. Your credit card will not be charged until shortly before we ship your order (so do be sure the expiration date is after your shipping date, please).
(3) We no longer publish a paper catalog. The vast majority of our orders now come from the website, and the ease with which we can add entries, create "specials", add photographs, and indicate plant availability makes the website vastly superior to the static and too-soon out-of-date printed catalog. If you crave a paper version, you can print one off the website by clicking on the "Print this page" link at the top right corner of each page.
We use several different pot sizes in production. Federal regulations require that pot sizes be given as liquid volume, and that is what you'll find at the end of each plant entry, just before the price. To help you interpret these we offer the following:
8 fl.oz.(235ml) - Mostly 2.5" square, 3.375" deep; a few are 2.25" square and 3.25" deep, so roughly 7 fl. oz.
14 fl.oz.(412ml) - 2.375" square, 5" deep tree band
1.25 pt (588ml) - 2.875" square, 5.5" deep tree band
1.5 pt (706ml) - 3.625" square, 4.5" deep bandpot
1.1 qt (1.06L) - 4.125" square, 4.875" deep
1.5 qt (1.4L) - 5" square, 5.625" deep
Plants are shipped in their pots, with three exceptions:
: bare-root dormant tubers
: all plants shipped to AZ, CA, OR and WA; some plants shipped to AK and TX, at our discretion
: large plants (1.1 qt or 1.5 qt) may, at our discretion, be removed from their pots, relieved of any excess potting mix, and wrapped for shipping
