How We Ship Your Plants
Ordering live plants online should feel exciting, not stressful! We only ship healthy, well-rooted trees and plants!
Beware- not all plant nurseries are the same! Others can cut corners to save money:
- We never ship bareroot plants
- We never cut roots to fit into a small box
- We always ship plants with healthy, developed roots so they establish faster at your home
- We focus on plant health first- not minimizing shipping costs
A strong root system is the foundation for long-term success, and we believe your plant should arrive ready to thrive- not struggling to recover from shortcuts.
How we Select Your Plants
Once you place your order, our nursery team selects your plant and inspects it to make sure it meets our quality standards. Every plant we ship is chosen for:
- Strong health and vibrant foliage
- A well-developed root system
- Correct sizing based on your order
We take pride in sending plants that are ready to succeed when they arrive at your home. We try our best to exceed your expectations!
Once your plants are selected, we give them a drink of water before their journey. Then, we wrap each plant's roots up in a plastic bag, so that they do not dry out during shipping.
Carefully Packed & Protected
Live plants can’t be packed like ordinary boxes, so we do it differently.
Your plant is carefully secured inside a strong shipping box to protect it while traveling. Packaging may include:
- Support materials for stability
- Protection around the pot and roots
- Reinforced boxing for added protection
For larger trees, we use oversize boxes designed to safely accommodate the size and structure of your plant during shipping.
Sometimes, you will receive multiple plants inside a box. This is helpful because it can evenly distribute the weight throughout the box, which helps keeps the plants safe and secure throughout delivery.
Fast & Reliable with FedEx
Most Nationwide Plants orders ship with FedEx. Over the years, we’ve found FedEx to be the best carrier for live plants, especially larger items, because:
- They deliver quickest across the country
- They are the most gentle with live plants
- Faster transit means less plant stress
Once your order ships, we will email you tracking information so you can follow your delivery from our nursery to your doorstep.
We ship Monday through Friday. Most orders ship the next business day, unless you request a custom shipping date.
Multiple Nursery Locations
We ship from multiple locations across the country, including both the East Coast and West Coast. This allows us to:
- Deliver faster in more regions
- Reduce time in transit for your plants
- Ship large items more efficiently

How We Measure Your Trees
We measure tree height from the soil line, not including the pot.
That means when you order a 5-6 ft. tree, you’re getting a tree that is 5-6 ft. tall above the soil, not “including the container.” This gives you a good idea of what to expect when your trees arrive, and what they will look like when they are in the ground.

After Your Plants Arrive
It’s completely normal for a plant to look slightly different after shipping. Your plant has been traveling in a box, so you may notice:
- Minor leaf drop
- Soil that shifted slightly in the pot
- Temporary drooping from being in a darker environment
In most cases, your plant perks up quickly once it’s unboxed, watered (if needed), and placed in the proper environment.
Unboxing Your Plants
When your plants arrive, we recommend:
-
Open carefully (avoid cutting into foliage)
-
Remove all packing materials
-
Check soil moisture (If the soil feels dry, give it a thorough watering)
-
Let the plant recover (Give it a little fresh air after shipping)
If you ever have questions or concerns, we’re happy to help!
Our 30-Day Plant Promise
We stand behind every order we ship with our 30-Day Plant Promise.
If your plant dies within 30 days of delivery, we will replace it or refund it. We’ve found that if there are ever issues, they typically show up in the first 30 days- so this guarantee gives our customers real peace of mind.
If anything doesn’t look right, contact us and we’ll help you troubleshoot quickly.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you ship bare-root plants?
No. We ship in soil with an established root system for the best success after delivery.
How fast will my order ship?
Most orders ship the next business day, unless you request a custom ship date.
Will my plant survive shipping?
Yes. Plants are resilient when packed correctly and shipped quickly. Our process is designed to protect your plant throughout transit.
What if my plant arrives droopy?
This is usually temporary from being in a dark box. Unbox promptly, check moisture, and allow time to adjust. If you’re concerned, reach out—we’re here to help.

With its low-maintenance nature and year-round color, this hardy tree is a popular choice for homeowners looking to create privacy screens, windbreaks, or simply add a unique architectural element to their garden.
Key Features of Blue Arrow Juniper:
- Narrow, Columnar Growth: Grows tall and slim, reaching heights of 12-15 feet and spreading just 2-3 feet wide, making it ideal for tight spaces or vertical accents.
- Striking Blue-Green Foliage: Features beautiful, soft-textured blue-green needles that maintain their color year-round for constant visual appeal.
- Low Maintenance & Drought-Tolerant: Thrives in USDA Zones 4-9, requiring minimal care once established and tolerating dry, poor soil conditions.
- Versatile Uses: Ideal for privacy screens, windbreaks, container planting, or as an accent along driveways and walkways.
- Cold Hardy & Urban-Friendly: Tolerates cold winters, heat, and urban pollution, making it an excellent choice for both rural and urban landscapes.
Elegant, Slim Shape Perfect for Vertical Accents
The Blue Arrow Juniper is known for its strikingly narrow, columnar growth habit, making it a fantastic choice for adding vertical interest to your landscape. Growing up to 12-15 feet tall with a slim width of just 2-3 feet, this tree is perfect for planting in smaller spaces or areas where a tall, slim form is desired. Its sleek, upright growth makes it an excellent choice for lining driveways, walkways, or patios, and it can also be planted in rows to create a unique, modern privacy screen.
Striking Blue-Green Foliage for Year-Round Color
One of the standout features of the Blue Arrow Juniper is its vibrant, blue-green foliage that stays bright and fresh all year long. The soft, fine-textured needles add visual interest and contrast beautifully with other green plants or colorful flowers in your landscape. This evergreen tree ensures that your garden remains vibrant and lively, even during the colder months when many other plants lose their leaves.
Low Maintenance and Drought-Tolerant
The Blue Arrow Juniper is a hardy, low-maintenance tree that thrives in a variety of conditions. Once established, it is highly drought-tolerant and requires little more than occasional watering during dry spells. It adapts well to different soil types, including poor and sandy soils, and can handle heat, humidity, and even urban pollution. This easy-care nature makes it a great choice for busy homeowners who want a beautiful, reliable tree without the need for constant upkeep.
Versatile and Ideal for Privacy Screens, Windbreaks, and More
With its narrow form and dense foliage, the Blue Arrow Juniper is an excellent choice for creating natural privacy screens or windbreaks in both large and small landscapes. Plant multiple trees in a row to form a sleek, modern barrier that shields your home or garden from wind and prying eyes, or use the tree as a striking vertical accent in container plantings, near entryways, or along fences. Its versatility makes it a valuable addition to any garden design.
Cold Hardy and Urban-Friendly
The Blue Arrow Juniper thrives in USDA Zones 4-9, making it a cold-hardy tree that can withstand harsh winters and hot summers alike. Its adaptability to different climates and tolerance for urban pollution make it a great option for city landscapes, public parks, or suburban homes. Whether planted in rural, suburban, or urban settings, this resilient juniper maintains its beautiful form and color throughout the year.
