Pre-order Information

What is a Pre-Order?

A pre-order reserves a plant that is still growing and not yet ready to ship.

  • Payment is taken at checkout to secure your plant.
  • Plants are shipped once they’ve developed strong roots to ensure safe travel.
  • Frost-Sensitive Plants are held until the last frosts have passed.

Benefits of Pre-Ordering

Pre-ordering ensures you:

  • Secure popular plants before they sell out.
  • Receive healthy, well-rooted plants ready to thrive in your pond straight from the grower.

When is Payment Taken?

Payment is taken at checkout to guarantee your plant is reserved. If we can’t supply your plant, we’ll contact you to offer an alternative or a full refund.

  • Phase 1 (March–April): Ships by late April at latest, plants in this phase will include Water Hawthorn, Marsh Marigold, Iris, and some waterlilies.
