Policies

 We are a wholesale nursery only. Do NOT send your customers to the nursery.

As a precaution to boxwood blight, we limit customer access through the nursery. For this reason, we do NOT accept the return of plants once delivered or taken away from the nursery. If you wish to walk the nursery, please check in at the office (gray house) upon arrival. Vehicle traffic through the nursery is prohibited.
