HOW PLANTS ARE SHIPPED

The size of the plants we ship has been selected to reduce the shock of transplanting. For some, this means a large, bareroot crown. Others cannot travel bareroot or transplant best if grown in containers. We ship these perennials and annuals in 1 pint pots, except as noted. We must point out that many perennials will not bloom the first year after planting, but will the following year, amply rewarding your patience. We ship bulbs as dormant, bare bulbs, sometimes with some wood shavings or moss. Shrubs, Roses, vines, and other woody plants may be shipped bareroot or in pots. The size of the pot is noted in the quick facts for each item.

WHEN WE SHIP

We ship our bulbs and plants at the right time for planting in your area, except as noted, with orders dispatched on a first-come, first-served basis by climate zone. We also ship a wide range of containers and planters, tools, supplies, fertilizers, garden wear, garden decor items, as well as indoor decorations like wreaths and dried bouquets when available. Estimated dates for shipping are indicated in the green Shipping Details box for each item. Please supply a street address for delivery. Kindly contact us with two weeks notice, if you'll be away at the expected time of delivery.

OUR GUARANTEE

We guarantee to ship plants that are in prime condition for growing. If your order is damaged or fails to meet your expectations, we will cheerfully replace or refund it. Please contact our Customer Service Department at 1-800-503-9624 or email us at [email protected]. Please include your order number or customer number when contacting us.

Disappointing

A viewer from KY

I love Lantana. I plant it every year. I bought these b/c they have a color combination I like, difficult to find locally. They simply refuse to grow and bloom. They looked fine on arrival. Planted right away. But they haven't grown at all - and the baby blooms are still in their infancy. One has turned brown and died. The other two look about like they did the day they arrived, tho a little more tired and shriveled looking. I can not imagine what is wrong, but naturally this is a disappointment.

Mrs.

A viewer from Sapulpa, OK

I bought the citrus lantana last summer, planted it in my flower bed, and it bloomed like crazy until late October. Then, surprisingly, this year in early May, here it came! Now, in early July, it is about 2 feet tall and blooming beautifully. Considered it an annual but apparently it likes Oklahoma heat. Will definitely buy more of these.

Best plant Iv found.

A viewer from Lancaster S.C.

I started with one plant, now I cant have enough of this lovely plant. It is so forgiving of the South's humidity and summer droughts and neglect from me during the heat. I have trouble finding new plants, as they are fast becoming everyone's favorite.

Beautiful and long lasting

Liz from Concord, MA

Used this lantana at the edge of a border, where it performed beautifully. Will always want some in my garden.

Latin Name Pronunciation: lan-tay'nuh  

Full sun (or partial shade in the South) and well-drained soil. Tolerates drought. Excellent in containers and hanging baskets. Put one plant in a 6–8″ pot, 3 plants in a 12–14″ pot or hanging basket. In all but mild-winter climates (plants are hardy to Zone 8 [10°F]), lift plants before frost and overwinter in pots on a sunny windowsill. Prune hard in spring. Set back outdoors when nighttime temperatures remain consistently above 55°F.

Growing Standards:

A standard is a woody plant trained to a long, single stem. The stem is crowned with a round head of foliage and flowers. This arrangement is beautiful but also unnatural, requiring a bit of effort on the part of the gardener to prevent gravity and the unrepressed inclinations of the plant from undoing the horticulturist's handiwork.

Staking a Standard: To keep your standard standing, put it out of reach of strong winds and support it with a stake that has a diameter at least as large as the stem's and long enough that when plunged into the pot or the ground it just reaches inside the head. Fasten the standard to the stake at several points with garden twine or green plastic tie tape looped in a figure-eight around stem and stake. Check the ties periodically during the growing season and loosen them if they constrict the outward growth of the stem.

Pruning, fertilizing, and repotting: Maintain the shape of the head with selective pinching of the new shoots (overzealous pinching will prevent the formation of flower buds). Pinch each shoot between thumb and forefinger or cut with pruning shears. Do not shear the plant as though it were a hedge. Fertilize standards grown in pots as you would other pot-grown plants. If you find that a standard in a container dries out quickly after watering, the plant probably needs a larger pot. Lift it from its current pot, make four deep vertical cuts in the root ball, and place it in a new pot that is 2in wider and taller than the old one, filling in around the root ball with fresh potting mix. Water thoroughly after repotting.

Overwintering a standard: Most standards require special care to overwinter. In cold winter climates, bring standards of Abutilon, Anisodontea, Fuchsia, Heliotrope, Lantana, and Rosemary indoors before frost and place them in an east- or west-facing window in a cool room. Water just enough to keep plants from drying out completely, and do not fertilize while plants are in this not-quite-dormant period. Set back outdoors in spring when nighttime temperatures remain consistently above 55°F.

Rosemaries will survive the winter in the ground in Zones 7 and warmer. In colder zones, bring your potted Rosemary indoors in the fall. Cut your Rosemary back by about one-third before bringing it indoors to overwinter. Do not repot it often as this causes shock. Place the plant in a spot that receives a lot of sun but that stays under 60°F. A cool, sunny enclosed porch is ideal. Keep the plant away from heat sources and on the dry side. Do not fertilize.
