Whether your gift is shipping to a friend, parent, pastor, or loved one, these trees will be a gift that can be enjoyed in years to come.

The trees are grown here, and hand-selected for each shipment. They are shipped in the two gallon containers that they are grown in (these trees are not small seedlings), giving them the best possible start when they are planted. They are carefully wrapped and packed in 3 foot tall boxes, then shipped via UPS. When your tree is shipped, you will receive a shipping/tracking email from UPS, as well as an email when your tree is delivered.

►Our trees are approximately 18" to 24" tall, grown and shipped in 2 gallon pots.
►Shipping is FREE - we ship via UPS Ground Service.
►The trees are shipped in 36" tall boxes and they are several years old when they ship.
