All packages are shipped via FedEx in boxes ranging from two to seven feet in length, and a tracking number will be sent to the email address provided with your order.

Shipping to the following states may experience delays due to required inspections by the USDA, Texas Department of Agriculture, and your local state regulatory agency:

If your package requires inspection, it will generally ship on our weekly Wednesday schedule.

State Restrictions:

California: We are unable to ship persimmon trees.

We are unable to ship outside the contiguous United States, including Hawaii, Alaska, Puerto Rico, and other U.S. territories.

Most boxes can accommodate up to two fruit trees. Shipping and handling ranges from $44.95 to $49.95, depending on location.
Certain items—such as citrus, avocado, tropical, and multi-grafted trees—are limited to one per box to prevent damage.
If a tree exceeds the height of a 5-foot box, the top will be pruned. Larger shade and flowering trees may be shipped in 7-foot boxes and pruned as needed. Shipping rates may vary for these larger items.
