All my plants are grown in my own personal gardens, ponds, and woodlands. I ship all plants BARE ROOT, meaning your plants will be freshly dug the morning I send to you, wrapped in wet toweling, then placed in plastic zip bags for shipping. I also trim the plants back for better shipping, and less transplant shock once you get them planted. Please contact me right away if you have any questions or concerns.
