Shipping charges

We charge a flat rate of $18 per shipment. Shipping live plants is careful and often painstaking work. This charge helps to cover the time it takes to prepare your plants so that they arrive in great condition!

Shipping Seasons

Orders placed during our spring preorder window ship around the middle of May. Orders placed after May 31st ship in mid-September. You will receive an email with tracking information when your order is on the way.

Bare Root Plants
If you order bare root plants you may receive your order in separate shipments at different times. Some bare root plants need to be dug and shipped in April and October. These plants should be installed immediately after receiving them.

Local Pick Up

If you are a local customer and would like to pick your order up in person, simply select “local pickup” during checkout. You will be notified by email how to sign up for a pickup date and time a few weeks prior to the pick up window opening.

Guarantee

We want your plantings to succeed! We guarantee that every plant you purchase will be true to name and healthy at time of pick up or delivery. Should plant losses occur due to delays in delivery or unfavorable weather conditions get in touch with us immediately. Due to the wide range of factors outside of our control, we cannot guarantee the viability of plants after they have been installed. However, should you experience challenges, please reach out! We may be able to help.

This plant kit is designed to make it easy for anyone to support the threatened monarch butterfly! The gorgeous swamp milkweed serves as a host for young monarch caterpillars and the meadow blazing star provides food for adult monarchs as they prepare for their fall migration. Though many species of milkweed can serve as host plants for larval monarchs, few do so with the style and beauty of swamp milkweed! And when it comes to food sources for migrating monarch butterflies, none are so desirable as the meadow blazing star! They flock to these flowers like magic!

Each garden kit comes with a complete Step-by-Step Guide that you can download here.

Each kit is split evenly between milkweed and blazing star plants. The meadow blazing star can be spaced at approximately 12″ while the swamp milkweed can be spaced between 18 and 24″.
