• Strong, established root systems for successful transplanting

Available Sizes

• 2½" pots

What to Expect

Growth Stage

• Plants may arrive at different stages depending on variety and season

• Most perennials ship with fresh top growth

Dormancy

• Some plants may arrive in a dormant (resting) state—this is completely natural

• Plant promptly to allow them to wake up and establish as soil temperatures warm

Weather & Shipping Delays

We closely monitor weather conditions to protect your plants during transit. If extreme temperatures or snow are expected, we may delay shipping briefly to ensure your plants arrive healthy, strong, and ready to thrive.

Pre-Shipping Care

• Foliage may be lightly trimmed before shipping

• This helps reduce stress and encourages strong root establishment after planting

Packaging with Purpose

At Desert Blooms, we believe sustainability doesn’t stop at the plants we grow—it extends to how we ship them.

You may notice that some of our boxes look gently used. That’s intentional. We reuse and recycle high-quality packaging materials whenever possible to reduce waste and lessen our environmental impact.

Rest assured, every box is carefully selected to ensure your plants arrive safe, secure, and ready to thrive. Inside, you’ll still find the same healthy, well-packed plants you expect from us.

It’s a small step that makes a big difference—for your garden and for the world around us.

Skip the box. Pick up your plants directly from us in Littleton, Colorado.

Local pickup is available for Colorado customers and is selected at checkout.

• Pickup is by appointment only

• Orders are typically ready within 1-5 business days (weather dependent)

• Exact address is shared after scheduling

This is a private residence — please do not arrive without a confirmed pickup time.

Live plants need a little extra care to make sure they arrive healthy. That’s why we use a variety of packaging methods to keep your order safe and secure.
