All customer inquiries should be directed to our Customer Service Department by live chat on our website, phone or email. Current contact information can be found here. For any issues, please contact us within the first growing season as defined below:

The first growing season for Fall- and Winter-planted items is defined as September through June of the first year they are planted. After June, Fall- and Winter-planted items are no longer covered under our guarantee.

As our gardening community understands, there are many environmental factors that are needed for a plant to successfully grow. These factors, including but not limited to, poor weather, planting outside of recommended growing conditions, improper planting techniques, moisture/sunlight needs, location, timing, etc. are out of our control and therefore cannot be covered under our Guarantee. We recommend all items be planted immediately after arrival. We are not able to guarantee the viability of the items if they are not planted upon arrival and stored. Please keep in mind, every plant is individual and unique and, just as in Mother Nature, perfection is not guaranteed. However, we can guarantee that you will receive the highest quality available in a timely manner.


When ordering, please make sure you choose products that are approved to grow according to the growing/climate zone of the delivery destination. We do not guarantee success if you're ordering products that grow outside of the acceptable growing zone(s).

Aztec lily

I had previously tried growing this plant in numerous well drained settings: Sun, part shade, well watered, dry. Little success. This year, I planted Sprekelia on a sunny, steep north slope, north facing, well drained, mulched heavily with pine needles, and well watered. Voila!!! Almost immediately after planting shoots appeared. Then the first bloom, then a second!! In July, the plant still has its foliage which continues to grow. Impressed, to say the least. I am awaiting next year to see if it returns in my Zone 5 garden.

Hardy and Exotic

Took a few years to get growing. A few summers ago I had several of these bloom. I had forgotten I planted them and now have have enough to divide. Very exotic flowers. They bloom as shown - close to soil level, but can be seen because of their bright red color. They are very showy in a cluster. The flowers keep well in a vase, which was a very pleasant surprise. Like it hot and not very wet. I live in the Central Valley of California and they have survived freezing temperatures to 20 degrees and some very hot summers.
