Please Note: Our Ships Now perennials will currently ship dormant. The foliage and blooms begin to brown and die back. We provide a hard trim in the greenhouse to support this process. During dormancy, plants go inactive to conserve their energy for the next growing season. This happens naturally as seasons change!

You must select Size and Ship Week to see accurate sale price and availability.
All preorder plants must have the same Ship Week selected to validate your order.
