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.

Robust Plant!

I planted my 2 Agastaches the day after I received them, and within 3 days, one of them had buds! It is now 3 weeks later, and I have blossoms. The 2nd one still looks healthy—no insect infestation and no signs of being used as an appetizer for a bunny’s lunch—but no buds yet. I am hoping it will still bud before the season is over.

In good shape

Healthy plant, doing well after about a month. It will have to catch up to my other Rosie Posies, but very happy with my purchase.

Great Garden Plants my new favorite

I just found this website about a month ago. I placed an order for three different perennials and five plants in total. Watched the video on unboxing them which I highly recommend! Before I had even received this first order, I went back online and ordered 24 more plants. These plants arrived exactly at the same time as my first order (love that I have the option of deciding when to deliver!). They sat in a plastic pool with water for a few days because we were hit with extreme heat and humidity and I had no chance to plant them. I promptly ordered another shipment of perennials BECAUSE A) the selection is unmatched B) the prices are reasonable and C) they are thriving in my yard. I only lost two plants out of the 30 plus I ordered and I blame myself for over soaking them in the hot weather. Highly recommend. I’m coming back in the fall to order my shade plants and the perennials that need to be planted in the fall for best success.
