• SHIPPING & HANDLING: We usually ship 2-5 days after payment is received. Before bidding, please understand: our plants are sensitive to the cold. We consult weather reports before shipping. If the weather enroute to your destination is unfavorable, shipping will be delayed until we can be reasonably assured of safe delivery. Delivery confirmation is included in the price of shipping. We do not ship to Canada, Italy or Australia Shipping based on zip code except for International which is based on weight and Country. Larger plants are based on weight, height, length, width and area.  See bottom of each auction for the exact costs of shipping.  The reduction sale shipping for multiple purchases goes with the highest shipping cost for the total auctions. Check with the auction, not all auctions have Combined Shipping, One Gallon plants and larger must be shipped individually unless worked out with us prior to shipping.

• AZ, LA, TX and CA will be shipped root ball with organic material that meets the standards and laws of those states.

• INTERNATIONAL Local Codes, Laws and Ordinances for live plants vary drastically, it is the buyer’s responsibility to be aware of their local policies and obtain any permits necessary for shipping. We are not responsible for any plants that fail to reach the buyer in International Countries and do not offer refunds if this happens. We ship many plants over seas and have never had any problems with this, however you will need to understand that you are taking this risk    NOTE: International USPS Mail must be kept under 36 inches, so ALL 1 gallon and larger plants MUST be shipped individual. NO COMBINED SHIPPING on Larger Plants. Customs will not let the larger packages through.

• Dutch Plant Auctions. In order to give you the most value for your money we try to keep these plants under 12 inches high (unless otherwise noted in auction) because they will grow rapidly to full size after you receive them. This affords you the greatest value for your money and keeps your shipping costs to a minimum. Sizes vary by variety and are usually indicated in the ad. In order to get your plants to you in a timely fashion we will in rare cases ship plants that are smaller than indicated. These plants are an exceptional value and will soon grow to the size indicated and beyond.
