How do I care for my plants?

Do you ship plants dormant?
Yes! Most leaf-bearing trees and plants enter dormancy or semi-dormancy in the fall through early spring. These plants are completely healthy but may have fewer leaves, discoloration, or lose almost all of their leaves. For what to do after you receive your plant in the mail click here.
Can I plant them while they are dormant?
Planting during dormancy promotes root growth, giving your plant a better start for spring, when new foliage will begin to grow. It’s possible that your shipped trees and plants may still be dormant while your local trees are leafing out. Just give your plants a few weeks for them to acclimate, and soon you will see new fresh foliage!
