🌿 We're in full swing for the 2026 season — orders are shipping now!
This page answers common questions about how and when your plants will arrive.
When will my plants ship?
We're actively shipping! Orders generally go out within a few business days, weather permitting. A few things affect timing:
1. The weather. We grow our plants in Midwest greenhouses and ship from our Chicago greenhouse, so we watch conditions on both ends. We won't send plants into a cold snap — we don't want them sitting in a cold truck — and if your area is about to get a late cold spell, we'll hold your order until it's safe to ship (your place in line is preserved).
2. Order volume. We ship in the order requests come in, so during busy weeks there may be a short wait. Popular varieties (especially hot peppers) can sell out, so ordering sooner helps ensure you get what you want.
3. Will all my plants ship at once? Usually — if you order everything together, it stays together (just let us know if you place a second order). We can safely fit only 4–6 plants per box, so larger orders may arrive in multiple boxes or a day or two apart.
