If you are unclear please ask, we will gladly help you figure your shipping cost.

For customers in UPS Zone 7 and 8,  UPS 3 DAY AIR SHIPPING is recommended during the hottest and coldest times of the year. (or just be patient and wait until the weather turns mild) Contact us for 3 DAY AIR RATES (they are just over  twice the cost of UPS GROUND but are guaranteed to reach you in 3 days). Certain bamboos (Fargesia, for example) are sensitive to extreme heat and should be planted in the Spring or Fall. Others (such as Phyllostachys ), love the hot weather and can be shipped by UPS GROUND and planted almost any time, except when the ground is frozen solid. If you live in California or pretty much anywhere in or west of the Rocky Mountains, Midwest, or Central we can send your plants via UPS Ground at any time of the year, barring extreme cold or heat waves.  Please call or e-mail us if you have any other questions.
