Care & Planting Guide

After your plants have arrived:

The plants in this box have just spent a lot of time being jostled around in the dark and must be unboxed right away. Unpack the entire box, removing packaging material and plants. Remove any plastic covering the pot and/or soil surface and check if the soil is dry. Water anything that is dry or looks wilted. Any plants that have come unpotted during shipping can be replaced in their pots and their roots covered with soil.

Place plants in a cool, shaded spot out of direct sunlight for 24- 48 hours after unpacking them. This allows them a recovery and acclimation period before planting. If you must hold them longer, place them out of direct sunlight, wind, heat, and cold. Check daily for watering.

USDA Hardiness Zones

USDA Hardiness Zones Map

ZONE HARDINESS

The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) has devised a system to provide gardeners with a basic guide to plant hardiness – how much winter cold a plant can withstand. The Hardiness Zone Map system divides the United States and Canada into numbered zones based on lowest average winter temperature. Even within a zone, different micro-climates exist, such as large urban areas which may be warmer or land situated at different elevations.

WHAT EFFECTS PLANT HARDINESS

The Hardiness Zone Map is a valuable tool but it is not foolproof. There are a variety of factors that can influence the hardiness of a given plant in a garden. These factors include: soil type, drainage, snow cover, exposure to wind, winter, rainfall (or lack of), as well as fluctuations in temperature.

'Rosie Posie' Hummingbird Mint

Beautiful Variety!

I ordered 11 plants to help with my butterfly garden. The variety of colors and plants they had was great. I had one that came with blight that they replaced right away. I had 2 more that died after planted in the ground, they made good on that, too. I'm excited for next year to see the extra colors coming out in my garden with all the butterflies and bees.

Unhappy with this order

I ordered 3 different plants 2 of the Rosie Posies came already dead in the pot . My kismet were all in bad shape I planted them and all but 1 is looking better. All 3 of the denim n lace were just sprigs I hope they survive. This is the first time the plants I ordered were not good healthy plants.

Rosie Posie Anise Hyssop

Received my order today! All the plants but the Rosie Posie's look good. They are wilted and one arrived with all the stems broken but one. Looks like it might have been handled a little rough. Hopefully they all survive.
