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.

Cancellation

Spring and fall pre-orders may be canceled at any time prior to April 15th for spring pre-orders and July 15th for fall pre-orders. Cancellations made after these dates will be subject to a 20% restocking fee.

We offer three packs of second season wood lilies as well as blooming age third and fourth season wood lilies. The three packs might still take two or three years to bloom. Read about my first encounter with this special plant and my efforts in growing them here.

One of only two lilies native to Minnesota (the other being the Michigan lily), wood lily is a stunning resident of our remnant prairies. It can only be found on high-quality remnant prairies or on very mature reconstructions. If sown into a reconstruction one can expect to wait seven years or more before seeing your first blossom!

Also called prairie lily, western orange-cup lily, western red lily, this gorgeous flower can grow up to two feet in the right conditions, but more often stands at no more than a foot. Deer and rabbits love this plant, so you’ll want to keep it protected, but its deep orange blossoms will be sure to make every ounce of prevention worth the effort!
