Here you will be able to see our plant availability lists, get early notices of sales or specials, allow you to track your invoices online, email your order to your salesperson, or email questions to any member of our staff right from your phone through the website.
In-Person Visits to one of our Wholesale Stores
Please check in at our customer service desk when you get to the store. We will assign one of our staff members to help you choose your material and then get it loaded for you. We want to ensure that your plants are properly top-tied, burlapped and watered so that they stay healthy until you can get them planted. We will warranty your product if it is properly tarped for you by our staff before you leave our premises.
Authorized Employees & Purchases
You can authorize staff members to access pricing and availability by logging into your account and clicking the “Authorize an Employee” button under important links. We will process your request and notify your staff member when their account has been created.
Plant Tagging
We are happy to hold all tagged plants in our yard for 10 days. After 10 days, if plants are not picked up or delivered, they will be untagged and returned to stock. If there are plants in our yard that you want to tag, please ask one of our staff members to help you tag them. We have yard maps to make it easier to move around and find what you need. Please make sure to get a written order for your tagged plants once you have finalized your choices. Tagged plants that are not accounted for on an order will be untagged and made available for sale.
Due to liability issues, we can’t work directly with your customers unless you or a staff member are accompanying them. If your customer comes to our yard unaccompanied, we will direct them to the retail yard where our sales staff will help with their order using retail pricing. We reserve the right to require prepayment for any plant material we must tag for you.
Special Order
Our buyers routinely cover the East Coast, Midwest and parts of the Northwest. They work with growers of the highest quality and hard-to-find material. If you don’t find what you are looking for in our sales area, please inquire with your Sales Representative about sourcing or locating your needs.

Delivery
We deliver throughout Eastern Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and New Hampshire using our CDL & Non-CDL rack-body trucks and tractor-trailers. Our freight rates are
based on the distance to the job site location and type of products ordered. We want to make sure we choose the best type of vehicle for each delivery and ask that you provide us with site-specific information so that we can do so.
For safety concerns, we ask that you provide sufficient staff members and the proper machinery (when required) for off-loading. Our guidelines are that any tree above 2.0/2.5” caliper or 7/8’ will require appropriate machinery for safe unloading. With palletized stone, bagged goods or palletized items, we have our Moffett/forklift service available for a reasonable fee. Upon placing your order, we will request the cell phone number of the job supervisor and will call the day before the scheduled delivery with an estimated 2-3 hour delivery window. All orders must be paid in full prior to delivery or entered into your company’s charge account.
