  • All plants and products will be shipped via FedEx unless otherwise explicitly specified.
  • If an item is in stock at the time of order, it will usually be shipped within 3 business days of the receipt of your order. Our shipping days are Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday to avoid the possibility of your plants sitting in a warehouse over the weekend.
  • If not in stock or no longer available, you will be notified within 2 business days of the receipt of your order.
  • Your credit card will not be charged until your order is shipped.
  • FedEx Services – properly completed orders received prior to 5 p.m. EST will be processed the next shipping day.

FedEx Ground Service Orders are estimated to take 1-6 days to deliver; therefore customers can expect to receive their order in 2-9 business days, depending on the final destination. FedEx Next Day Air Customers can expect delivery 1 business day after the order is shipped. FedEx 2nd Day Air Customers can expect delivery 2 business days after the order is shipped. FedEx 3rd Day Select Customers can expect delivery 3 business day after the order is shipped. Note: We only shipped on Monday and Tuesday for 3rd Day Select.

  • If you choose the ‘Pick up from us’ option, we will notify you when your order is ready and arrange a time for you to call and pick up your order.

Returns & Replacements

  • We pride ourselves on the quality of the plants and products that we supply. To the best of our ability the plants you purchase are healthy, correctly named and hardy in zone 5 or even harsher conditions.
  • Please read the Detailed Description and Additional Information provided for each plant.
  • To protect your plant in transit, we package carefully and only ship on Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays. However, we cannot be responsible for delays caused by problems outside our control.
  • As computer monitors and screens differ, the actual colours of our plants and flowers may differ slightly to that shown on your computer.
  • If you are unhappy with your plant or product for any reason, please call us within 2 business days of receiving your shipment.

Payment, Pricing & Promotions

  • The Order Subtotal is the cost of all of the products in the shopping cart, which reflects any discounts. The Order Subtotal excludes shipping, taxes and promotion codes. Shipping charges are calculated after all discounts and promotion codes have been applied to the order.
  • If the Order Subtotal qualifies for Free Ground Shipping, any promotional codes or discounts applied will reduce the Order Total and may not qualify for free ground shipping unless additional item(s) are added to the order.
  • Blue River Nursery collects sale tax on all orders placed in its store. Blue River Nursery does not accept tax-exempt orders at this time.

Gift Certificates

  • Gift Certificates always ship for free.
  • If you are buying Gift Certificates, the value of the certificates will apply towards the Order Subtotal. If you are redeeming Gift Certificates, this will not impact your Order Subtotal (they apply as a form of payment against your final Order Total).
