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.

Dream Weaver Camellia – A Stunning, Year-Round Beauty for Your Garden
The Dream Weaver Camellia (Camellia japonica ‘Dream Weaver’) is a breathtaking flowering shrub that brings elegance and color to your landscape. This camellia variety is prized for its large, semi-double to peony-form blooms in striking shades of soft pink with hints of white and deep pink streaking, creating a dreamy, watercolor-like effect. Whether you’re looking to enhance your garden, attract pollinators, or create a showstopping hedge, this camellia delivers beauty and resilience in every season.
Why Choose Dream Weaver Camellia?
1. Long-Lasting Blooms in Late Winter to Early Spring
Your garden will burst into color when many other plants remain dormant. Dream Weaver Camellia starts blooming in late winter and continues well into spring, providing an extended floral display. This is the perfect way to brighten up your landscape when most flowers have yet to emerge.
2. Glossy Evergreen Foliage for Year-Round Interest
Even when not in bloom, Dream Weaver Camellia offers lush, dark green, glossy leaves that remain vibrant throughout the year. The dense foliage makes it an excellent choice for privacy hedges, foundation plantings, or container gardening.
3. Compact and Manageable Growth Habit
This camellia variety reaches a mature height of 6 to 8 feet with a spread of 4 to 6 feet, making it ideal for small gardens, entryways, or even patio containers. Its upright growth habit allows you to shape it to fit your desired landscape design.
4. Attracts Pollinators Without the Mess
Unlike some flowering shrubs that can be messy with seed pods or excessive leaf drop, the Dream Weaver Camellia attracts butterflies and beneficial pollinators without creating unwanted litter in your yard. The flowers naturally fade without making a mess, keeping your garden neat and elegant.
5. Shade-Tolerant and Adaptable to Different Conditions
One of the best features of Dream Weaver Camellia is its ability to thrive in partial to full shade. This makes it an excellent option for woodland gardens, shaded patios, or areas where other sun-loving plants struggle. It prefers well-draining, slightly acidic soil, making it a great companion for azaleas, rhododendrons, and ferns.
