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.

Lemon Cypress in Red Holiday Pot: Bright Evergreen Color for the Holidays and Beyond
Bring fresh holiday color into your home with the Lemon Cypress in Red Holiday Pot. This cheerful evergreen has soft golden-green foliage, a neat upright shape, and a light lemon scent when the leaves are gently brushed.
The festive red pot makes it ready to display or give as a gift. Place it on a tabletop, mantel, desk, entryway, or porch for a simple holiday accent that can keep growing long after the season ends.
Why You'll Love the Lemon Cypress in Red Holiday Pot
Festive and Gift-Ready: The bright red holiday pot makes this plant easy to give or display right away.
Golden-Green Evergreen Foliage: Soft, bright foliage adds fresh color to winter decorating.
Light Lemon Fragrance: Gently brush the foliage to enjoy its fresh citrus-like scent.
Compact, Upright Shape: Its narrow form fits easily on tables, desks, mantels, and other small spaces.
Great for Holiday Decorating: Use it in entryways, living rooms, offices, porches, and seasonal displays.
Enjoy It After the Holidays: With the right care, Lemon Cypress can continue growing as a container plant after the decorations come down.
Bright Golden-Green Color for Winter Decorating
The standout feature of Lemon Cypress is its bright golden-green foliage. The soft, feathery leaves bring fresh color to indoor spaces during a time of year when many outdoor plants are dormant.
Its natural cone-like shape also gives it the look of a small holiday tree without needing much decorating.
A Fresh Lemon Scent When Touched
Lemon Cypress gets its name from the light lemony fragrance released when the foliage is gently brushed or touched.
This soft citrus scent adds another layer of seasonal charm and makes the plant especially nice for entryways, kitchens, desks, and other places where you can enjoy it up close.
Where to Display Lemon Cypress During the Holidays
Tabletops: Add bright evergreen color to dining tables, side tables, and holiday displays.
Mantels: Use one or more plants to create a simple, fresh holiday look.
Entryways: Place it near a door or hallway to welcome guests with cheerful color.
Desks and Offices: Its compact size makes it a great seasonal plant for workspaces.
Porches: In mild weather, use it as part of a festive outdoor container display.
Lemon Cypress Light and Water Needs
Light: Keep your Lemon Cypress in a bright location. Indoors, place it near a sunny window where it can receive plenty of light.
Watering: Keep the soil evenly moist, but do not let the roots sit in standing water. Water when the top of the soil begins to feel slightly dry.
Drainage: Make sure excess water can drain away from the roots. If the decorative pot does not have drainage, remove the inner growing pot for watering and let it drain fully before placing it back.
How to Keep Lemon Cypress Healthy Indoors
Lemon Cypress prefers bright light and cooler indoor conditions. Keep it away from heating vents, fireplaces, and other strong heat sources that can dry the foliage quickly.
Check the soil regularly, since small containers can dry out faster indoors. The goal is to keep the soil lightly and evenly moist without making it soggy.
Move It Outdoors After the Holidays
After the holiday season, Lemon Cypress can continue growing as a container plant. When weather conditions are suitable, slowly move it outdoors so it can adjust to stronger sunlight.
In climates where Lemon Cypress is winter hardy, it may also be grown outdoors long term. In colder areas, keep it in a container so it can be moved to a protected location when needed.
A Holiday Gift That Keeps Growing
Unlike decorations that are packed away after the season, Lemon Cypress can continue bringing color and greenery to your home throughout the year.
Its festive red pot makes it an easy gift for plant lovers, hosts, friends, family members, coworkers, and anyone who enjoys natural holiday decor.
Fresh Evergreen Cheer for the Holidays and Beyond
If you want a holiday plant with bright golden-green foliage, light lemon fragrance, compact growth, and lasting evergreen beauty, Lemon Cypress in a Red Holiday Pot is an excellent choice.
Bring home a Lemon Cypress for fresh holiday color, natural fragrance, and a living decoration you can enjoy long after the season is over.
