*Shipping charges can be avoided by picking the order up at Ty Ty Nursery's physical location in Ty Ty, GA, unless a shipping promotion is listed on Ty Ty Nursery's web page.
All deciduous plants ship beginning approximately December 15th through April 15th. All evergreen, palm, bamboo, bulb, banana, fig, olive, loquat, etc. will be shipped year round, excluding July and August. Shipping information is available on the product pages, if a plant is listed for "Fall Shipping", the plants will be shipped once they have gone dormant for the year. All orders are shipped complete and will not be split shipped, unless special shipping arrangements have been made with Ty Ty Nursery. An order will be held until all products are available to be shipped. All deciduous plants will be pruned prior to shipping, or picking up at Ty Ty Nursery, the pruning is beneficial to the transplanting process and is done by the professionals at Ty Ty Nursery at no added cost. Any deciduous plant that is not pruned 1/3 will not have a 1 year Plantsurance. We will not, under any circumstances, refund customer's shipping to return plants to the Nursery.
Shipping of dormant plants and trees from Ty Ty Nursery normally begins Dec 15th every year as explained on our order form and every page of the website, however, some evergreens, herbaceous plants and bulbs can sometimes be shipped in November. Other plants such as Jujube, Quince and bearing size trees come to us from California where dormancy comes later and are shipped to you in January or February as they become available.
Worry not in Northern states that the trees arrive in freezing weather, because dormant trees do not go into shock, but trees with leaves can undergo damage if planted at the improper season. If you order from a Northern state, we are happy to reschedule your Fall shipment for the Spring, if you prefer.
Fruit trees do not grow above ground normally during the Winter except for the roots underground, so that as long as your trees are planted before Spring leaf-out, the trees will be OK., and Ty Ty Nursery guarantees your trees livability for the first year.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture and the State of Georgia enacted laws stating that woody trees be shipped only when dormant, and the dormancy season is unpredictable determined by the weather. Please do not request Ty Ty Nursery to ship plants before dormant, since it is improper to do so. In order to conserve shipping costs, Ty Ty Nursery ships your whole order at one time.

Why Ty Ty Nursery suspends plant and tree shipments during summer, (June 22nd till September 1st) except for motor freight shipments.
1. Container trees & plants shipped in boxes are stressed and desiccated, because of the 'greenhouse-effect,' box-heat buildup within the cardboard container that leads to weakened plants. The interior box temperatures sometimes reach 135 degrees F. This basically cooks the trees, and the UPS metal trucks will further cascade the steamy temperatures during July and August.
2. When plants are enclosed within a box for several days, the light blackout interrupts the tree "PHOTOPERIOD", and the leaf slowdown of transpiration can interrupt growth, or in the worst case can put the plant into a lethal dormancy resulting in tree death.
3. Plants and trees resent being transplanted during July and August, and the daily watering requirements are often not done by most customers, leading to a poor plant and tree performance that usually causes customer dissatisfaction.
Do not throw away your hard earned money on a tree nursery that encourages a gardener or a plant enthusiast to plant trees during the wrong time of the year, or unloading their leftover plants from their normal shipping season - with their financial motive of making a few extra bucks. Ty Ty Nursery knows the best time and season to plant your new landscape trees or orchard additions for the best survival techniques that will lead to an uninterrupted period of long term growth. Some tree nurseries will try to convince their customers to buy and plant their trees now. Those nurseries promise that they can ship trees to you right now, since their trees are shipped in a protective container. The amount of stress placed upon the trees, when planting during the summer, is 4 times higher than when planting during the proper season, and in most cases out-of-season planting will lead to a shortened life span of the tree. We want Ty Ty Nursery customers to be satisfied for many years in the future by planting their beautiful addition of trees at the proper season, so we suspend plant our UPS shipping during the two hottest months of the year (July and August). All orders will be delayed until September as noted on the availability section of the product pages. Ty Ty orders will not be charged until September 1st, 2014, except when your payment is made through PayPal Express which is deducted at the time of ordering. If an item is noted for (Freight Shipping), we can more efficiently deliver trees by motor freight, however, it is more expensive and any additional cost must be covered by the customer. If you have any questions please call us toll free at 888-758-2252. |
