When will my spring order ship?

We ship our spring-flowering bulbs and plants ordered from our spring catalog and website at the right time for planting in the spring, beginning in early March for warmer zones. The exact time varies by climate zone. Your order may arrive in more than one shipment, but this will not affect shipping charges.

We begin spring shipping the most cold-tolerant, dormant perennials in early March to Zones 7-9, with Zone 5 commencing in early April; less cold-tolerant annuals and perennials start shipping in April, in the latter part of the month to Zones 5 and 6. Click here to find your hardiness zone.

If we have your email address on file, we will notify you when your order is shipped.

Please note that these shipping times below are only estimates:
