- SHIPPING SEASONS: 
The Fall season begins usually about the 15th of September 
or at that time when we have had sufficient rain to put 
the ground in proper condition for digging. The Fall 
season usually closes November 15th. 
The Spring season begins just as soon as all the frost is 
out of the ground—usually around April Ist. By May 
15th, the stock is normally too far out in growth to 
transplant successfully.
