No—shipping costs are already included in the price of each plant.

Residential streets are often too narrow for tractor-trailers. Please arrange for delivery at a school, church, business, or another accessible location.

• Geraniums & Mums ship on heavy-duty rolling racks and require a paved lot for unloading.

• Poinsettias are sleeved and shipped in protective cardboard cases.
  We use corn starch on the stretch wrap for Mums to prevent sticking—this is safe and not a chemical residue.

We work hard to meet your preferred delivery date, but schedules may shift based on truck capacity. We’ll coordinate with you to get as close as possible.

• Geraniums: 3 racks (168 pots)

• Mums: 3 racks (96 pots)

• Poinsettias: 25 cases (200 pots)
  Minimums may vary based on your location and availability.

We recommend aiming for 50–100% profit. Most supporters are happy to pay above market rate since they view it as a donation.

Great leadership, defined goals, and team motivation are key. Also consider your local competition and product pricing.

• Mums: 4–6 weeks

• Poinsettias: Can last well past the holidays if properly cared for
