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.

Starblast Chiffon™ Rose of Sharon: White and Pink Summer Blooms That Last
Add bold summer color to your landscape with Starblast Chiffon™ Rose of Sharon. This beautiful flowering shrub produces large white blooms with soft, fluffy centers and a bright hot pink starburst in the middle.
Starblast Chiffon™ blooms earlier and keeps flowering longer than many other Rose of Sharon varieties, giving you weeks of color from summer into fall. Its rounded, well-branched shape makes it a great choice for borders, foundation beds, flowering hedges, and large patio containers.
Why You'll Love Starblast Chiffon™ Rose of Sharon
Eye-Catching White and Pink Flowers: Bright white blooms feature fluffy centers and a bold hot pink starburst for a striking two-tone look.
Long Bloom Season: Starblast Chiffon™ starts flowering earlier and continues longer than many other Rose of Sharon varieties.
Handles Summer Heat: This tough flowering shrub keeps performing during warm weather when many other plants begin to slow down.
Pollinator Friendly: The flowers help attract bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds to your garden.
Deer Resistant: Deer usually leave Rose of Sharon alone, making it a useful choice for lower-maintenance landscapes.
Great for Containers: Its tidy shape works well in large outdoor pots on patios, porches, decks, and entryways.
Beautiful White Blooms With a Hot Pink Starburst
The standout feature of Starblast Chiffon™ Rose of Sharon is its unique flower color. Each bloom opens bright white with a soft, full center and a vivid pink-red starburst that reaches out from the middle.
The strong contrast makes the flowers easy to notice from across the yard and gives your landscape a fresh splash of color through the hottest part of summer.
Long-Lasting Flowers From Summer Into Fall
Starblast Chiffon™ is a great choice for extending the flowering season. It begins blooming earlier than many Rose of Sharon varieties and can continue producing flowers into fall.
This makes it especially useful for filling the gap after many spring and early-summer shrubs have finished blooming.
Where to Plant Starblast Chiffon™ Rose of Sharon
Foundation Plantings: Use it near your home to add height, color, and a neat rounded shape.
Flowering Hedges: Plant several together to create a colorful seasonal screen or informal hedge.
Mixed Borders: Pair it with evergreens, ornamental grasses, and flowering perennials for months of contrast.
Specimen Plantings: Plant one as a focal point where the white and pink flowers can stand out.
Pollinator Gardens: Add it to sunny garden beds to help attract bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds.
Large Containers: Grow Starblast Chiffon™ in a large outdoor planter to bring its blooms closer to patios and outdoor living areas.
Starblast Chiffon™ Rose of Sharon Sun and Soil Needs

Soil: It grows well in many soil types as long as the area drains well. Avoid spots where water stays around the roots for long periods.
Watering: Water regularly while the shrub is becoming established. Once the roots are settled in, it becomes easier to care for and can handle short dry periods.
A Rounded, Tidy Shrub for Easy Landscaping
Starblast Chiffon™ grows with a naturally rounded and well-branched shape. This helps the shrub look full and balanced without needing constant pruning.
Its tidy growth makes it easy to use in both formal and relaxed garden designs.

The long bloom season makes Starblast Chiffon™ Rose of Sharon useful for pollinator-friendly landscapes. Its flowers can help draw bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds during the summer months.
Plant it near a patio, garden path, or window to enjoy both the colorful flowers and the extra garden activity.
Bold Summer Color With Very Little Work
If you want a flowering shrub with white and pink blooms, a long flowering season, heat tolerance, and easy-care growth, Starblast Chiffon™ Rose of Sharon is an excellent choice.
Plant Starblast Chiffon™ Rose of Sharon for months of bright starburst flowers and dependable summer color that keeps your landscape looking lively into fall.
