Shipping Season
SEED orders can be shipped throughout the year.
BARE ROOT PLANT orders are shipped during optimal transplanting time. Since our plants are field grown, Nature sets the schedule each year as to when our digging season will begin and end. Our Minnesota climate sometimes provides us with April or October snows and/or frozen ground, heavy rains, etc. We fill all orders to the best of our ability depending on conditions beyond our control. Please note that we do not ship plants outside the contiguous United States.
POTTED PLANTS (trays of 32) are shipped mid-May through late-July.
The FALL plant shipping season usually runs from early October to mid November. In the SPRING, plants are normally shipped from April to mid May, with some species available until mid June. Best results can be expected, however, if transplanting is done in April.
Delivery
Our orders are shipped with the United States Postal Service (USPS), United Parcel Service (UPS) and Spee-Dee Delievery. Since UPS and Spee-Dee do not recognize Post Office Box numbers, it is important to include your street address or rural route number when you order.
Pick-up Orders
We are a mail order nursery and have no retail facilities, but you may pick up your order if prior arrangements are made. There is no handling charge for orders picked up at the nursery but customers must pay the 6.5% MN state sales tax (as of July 1, 2009 the new MN state sales tax will be 6.875%).
State Sales Tax
Minnesota residents are required to pay 6.5% sales tax (as of July 1, 2009 the new MN state sales tax will be 6.875%). Please note that shipping and handling charges are also subject to the tax.
Cancellations
A 25% cancellation fee will be charged on cancelled orders. Shipped plants and custom designed seed mixes are non-returnable. A 25% restocking fee will be charged on other seed that is returned. After 30 days we cannot accept returned seed.
Guarantee
We guarantee species to be true to name and that plants and seeds arrive in good condition. If losses occur due to delay in delivery or unfavorable weather conditions in transit, contact us immediately. We cannot guarantee successful growth after planting, but please let us know about any disappointments you experience. We may be able to help. No other guarantee is expressed or implied. Prices are subject to change without notice.
