What We Ship

The Benefits of Bare Root Plants

Bare root plants are shipped without soil or pots, making them lightweight and easy to handle. They arrive dormant, ready to be planted and thrive as beautiful, healthy additions to your garden.

Cost-Effective

With no heavy pots or soil, you'll save 50-60% on shipping costs, and you can easily plant our plants yourself—no equipment needed, just a spade for digging small holes.

Hassle-Free

Bare root plants are hassle-free because they're lightweight, easy to handle, and require minimal packaging. They establish quickly, saving you time and effort in planting and maintenance.

Better Growth

Bareroot dormant plants are more hardy because they adapt better to new environments, with stronger root systems that establish quickly, leading to greater resilience and improved survival rates in various conditions.

Eco-Friendly

Bare root native plants are environmentally friendly because they promote biodiversity, require less water and maintenance, and support local ecosystems, making them a sustainable choice for eco-conscious gardening

Caring Tips

How do I care for my Mayapple?

Each box contains detailed care instructions and information about your product. But here's the basics.

Care Tips

Mayapple thrives in well-drained, rich soil and requires consistent moisture. Mulch near the ground to maintain soil dampness and prevent weeds. Water regularly, particularly in dry periods. Avoid disturbing the roots, as they are sensitive to transplantation.

Light Requirements

Mayapple (Podophyllum peltatum) thrives in dappled or filtered light. It prefers the shaded understory of deciduous forests, where it acquires morning sun and afternoon shade. Too much direct sunlight can lead to reduced growth and leaf scorching.

Wait and see

I appreciated that they came in a timely manner. Most looked healthy, although three had mildew. I gave it a three because I really won’t know how they do until they start to grow, as they were small starts.

My wife loves them so have been slowly putting them throughout the garden. Roots came healthy and ready for planting. Would order again.

I will get back to you when they sprout. They just arrived yesterday and were planted yesterday. Unless they are like the magical beans in the fairytale, they aren't up yet. So far, however, so good

Better Than I Dared Hope

After I placed my order, I came across a fair number of very negative reviews and I worried that I had made a huge mistake. But when I opened my plants (all bare root and dormant), I was very happy to see very robust and firm root stocks, and the beginnings of some emerging growth! All went into the ground just before we had a couple days of rain showers, and already I see some signs of growth and greenery. If this continues, I will definitely be back! Thanks for proving the naysayers wrong!
