Plant Return Policy & Shipping Details ＋

Some of the plants you'll find here reach beyond what we grow and keep on hand at the garden center — they ship straight to your door from a network of growers we trust. Because these items never come through Pandy's Garden Center, they can't be picked up, returned, or exchanged in store, and all online plant orders are final sale.

If your order shows up damaged, send us photos of the plant and the packaging within 48 hours of delivery. Once we've had a look, we'll arrange a replacement wherever possible.

A few things to keep in mind:

Orders leave from a separate facility and may arrive on their own schedule
Online plant purchases don't carry any warranty or guarantee
How a plant does once it's home depends on the care and conditions you give it
Prices online may differ from what you'll find in store

For order support, contact Michael Pandy — michael@pandysgardencenter.com

✓ Ships directly to your home

✓ Free Shipping — included in the plant price, prior to tax

All sales final — this order can't be cancelled or returned. If your plant arrives with an issue, contact us within 48 hours. See Plant Return Policy & Shipping Details above for how.

⚠ Shipping Restriction Unfortunately, we're unable to ship this plant to: Alaska, Hawaii, Idaho, and Montana.

🚚 When will my plant ship?

Ships UPS Ground — usually within 1–2 business days of your order.

Most orders arrive in 3–5 business days.

We ship early in the week so your plant isn't sitting in a truck over the weekend — orders placed Friday or over the weekend typically ship the following Monday.

Shipping to AZ, CA, NV, OR, UT or WA? Allow 3–10 business days.

Why the extra time? These states require nursery plants to be “dipped” before they can cross the state line — the roots are treated and inspected to make sure no soil pests (like Japanese beetle) travel with the plant. It’s a required agricultural step that adds a few days, and it means your plant arrives clean and compliant.

🚚 Shipping Timeframe

We do our best to ship within 1–2 business days via UPS Ground. Depending on the location, orders arrive in 3–5 days.

Orders placed on Friday will ship the following Monday.

Shipping to Arizona, California, Nevada, Oregon, Utah, or Washington? These orders take a little longer — 3–10 days depending on when the order is placed — because they require dipping.

Dipping is a quick root treatment required by these states to guard against pests like the Japanese beetle, so your plant can ship in safely. It's a normal step — it just adds a little time.

🌱 Successful Planting Instructions

Proper planting depth — plant 2–3" higher than grade, trunk flare exposed

1. Dig a hole 1½–2× the width of your plant's root ball. Set the soil to the side.

2. Mix your backfill — Pine Bark Soil Conditioner, Compost & Native Soil (1/3 of each) in a wheelbarrow or on the ground.

3. Plant it high — when backfilling, keep the plant 2–3" higher than the surrounding soil (as shown). Plant flush with the soil if in a raised bed.

4. Mulch the top of the soil 2–3" deep around the plant — keep mulch away from the main trunk.

5. Feed as you plant with Holly-tone for acid-loving plants.

The 1/3 backfill blend:

Soil conditioner, compost, Holly-tone & cedar mulch are available in-store or for local pickup at our Elyria Garden Center — these items don't ship but you can find at local store near you.

✕Pickup is not available for this item — it ships free to your door.

💧 Watering Guide

Over- and under-watering is the #1 cause of plant death — so always check the soil before you water.

How to check — the wire/screwdriver test. Straighten a wire or coat hanger, push it 6–12" into the soil next to the plant, pull it out, and read it:

Clear or dusty → water the plant
Muddy → soil is too wet
Moist with a little soil clinging to it → watered just right ✓
Won't go in → water immediately

Newly planted trees & shrubs — keep the soil moist their first season and never let it dry out. Water slowly at the base (hose ~6" from the trunk, pencil-thin stream):

Shrubs — 3 min
Ornamentals (flowering crab, etc.) — 10 min
Evergreens (6') — 15 min
Deciduous (2½" caliper) — 15 min (+15 min per extra inch)

Using a Gator Bag? Fill it every 3 days.

How often (OHIO Weather) (new plantings):

Apr 15 – May 15: once a week
May 16 – Sept 15: twice a week
Sept 16 – Oct 31: once a week
Mid-Nov – early Dec: once, if the ground isn't frozen

Already established? Most of the time, rooted-in plants only need water during a drought — when it's gone 10–14 days without an inch of rain.
