Shipping & Returns
Shipping & Returns
Shipping:
Shipping live plants sometimes has its challenges when dealing with inclement weather but we strive to have every single order shipped out on their scheduled shipping date. Most orders will be scheduled to ship within 1-2 weeks of ordering. Because a plant needs TLC we only ship out on Mondays-Wednesdays to ensure the plants aren’t stationed somewhere over the weekend with no water or sunlight.
When to Ship:
We can ship out plants at anytime of the year pruned or not pruned, cold or not cold. Each plant’s durabilty is different so we recommend having them shipped in their designated season but we will still ship your plant to you earlier if you choose so.
Returns:
Because plants are perishable they cannot be returned without prior permission. We work hard to ensure all plants arrive healthy, but on rare occasions issues with the plant health upon delivery do arise.
Every single shipped plant is healthy upon departing our facility but if a plant is received in poor health contact us immediately so that we can assess the problem and work on saving the plant. We will first need a photo of the plant to start a claim. If we determine your plant cannot be recovered we will send you a replacement immediately. If notified of the plants health within 4 days we will send a replacement 100% free of charge.
If you determine the plant not to be healthy 4 days after delivery you can contact us and we will issue a 50% store credit.
30 days after delivery we cannot be held responsible for the current health of the plant.

What is the planting zone for these roses
Sweet Drift roses thrive in USDA Hardiness Zones 4–11.
-
Hello, I live in Northern Michigan, around the Mackinaw City area and need to know if this is a plant that can withstand a very cold climate in the winter months with snow being a big factor. And I know that this plant is not going to bloom during those times but if I use this as a shrubbery will it come back every Spring?
It is hardy in zones 4-11, so it can survive Northern Michigan’s winters (zone 4-5). Yes, it will come back each spring, but winter protection is recommended. Apply mulch around the base and consider burlap wrapping for extra insulation.
-
Does it come dormant
Yes, Sweet Drift Roses (Rosa 'Meiswetdom') do become dormant during the winter. Like most roses, they go through a period of dormancy in response to colder temperatures and reduced daylight hours, especially in regions with distinct seasons.
What to Expect During Dormancy:
-
Leaf Drop: As the plant enters dormancy, it will drop its leaves and stop producing new growth or flowers.
-
Reduced Maintenance: During dormancy, the plant requires less water and no fertilization. Pruning is often done in late winter or early spring before new growth begins.
-
Cold Hardiness: Sweet Drift Roses are generally hardy in USDA Zones 4-11, so they can handle the cold winters in most regions, including colder zones like 7 and 6.
-
Winter Protection: While these roses are hardy, in colder zones (Zones 4-5), it may be beneficial to apply mulch around the base of the plant after the ground freezes to protect the roots from extreme cold.
When spring arrives and temperatures warm up, the rose will break dormancy, produce new leaves, and begin flowering again.
