Tree, Shrub, and Vine Spring Special Orders
These are species we have previously carried from the grower supplying us with plants for these Special Orders. You can request any of these items, but there is no guarantee that we can be supplied with them.
Remember:
- Special Orders for Trees, Shrubs, and Vines must be picked up Sunday, April 11
- 15% off of 5 or more items. The 5 items must be available, so consider having backups if some of your requested items are declined.
- Please send requests to info@nativeplantsunlimited.com indicating which species you would like and what size you would prefer. Listed prices are for 3 gallon pots, but 1, 3, 5, and 7 gallon pots, as well as caliper-measured sizes, are sometimes available, with prices determined once availability is established with the grower.
