[1] The Date and Time
If you place your order in the morning before 9am EST, your order just might ship that same day, unless our shipping schedule is already full [please assume it is full in the Spring]. If you order later in the week and we determine that it will not arrive by Friday, we will schedule your trees to ship the following Monday or Tuesday. We encourage you to order early to ensure availability, and you can request a later ship date in a follow up email shortly after placing your order. Please see our shipping page for more details.
[2] Your Location
We do not or cannot ship to all states within the US, specifically Hawaii, Idaho and Puerto Rico, nor do we ship outside the US to Canada or Mexico. Although all of our plants have passed the Michigan Department of Agriculture inspections for pests and diseases, it is very expensive to obtain the additional pest and disease inspections required to ship live plants outside the lower 48 states of the US.
[3] Significantly postponing your ship date might affect size
Usually the tree sizes advertised on our site are pretty spot on. If however you request that we hold your shipment for weeks or even months, our published tree sizes may no longer be accurate…here’s why >>
