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.

How tall do they get
An Oakland Holly (Ilex hybrid 'Oakland') can grow to a mature height of 15 to 20 feet with a spread of 12 to 15 feet. Its dense, pyramidal shape makes it an excellent choice for use as a privacy screen, hedge, or ornamental tree. Oakland Holly is known for its evergreen foliage and minimal maintenance, providing year-round interest and structure to your landscape.

How close should 3 gallon Oakland holly be planted?
When planting Oakland Holly (Ilex x 'Conaf'), the spacing depends on how you plan to use them in your landscape. Here’s a general guideline:
-
For a Hedge or Screen:
- If you're planting them to form a dense hedge or privacy screen, space the 3-gallon Oakland Holly plants about 4 to 6 feet apart. This spacing allows the plants to grow together, creating a thick, uniform barrier.
-
For Individual Specimens:
- If you’re planting them as individual specimens or want them to grow as stand-alone shrubs with space around each one, space them 8 to 10 feet apart. This gives each plant enough room to develop its natural shape without crowding.
Oakland Holly can grow up to 15 to 20 feet tall and 12 to 15 feet wide at maturity, so giving them adequate space will ensure they grow healthily and achieve their full potential.

Healthy beautiful plants
I'm not entirely sure why people aren't taking advantage of the best price on the internet for a gorgeous and fast growing hedge. I was looking for a fast growing privacy hedge that isn't as prickly as the needlepoint but still has the thick, dense foliage and the berries for a Christmas look. These come beautifully packaged and ready to go. Within two months (and the worst drought we've had in about a century) they have already grown 2 inches. An absolute steal for the quality folks!
