About Ordering

To place an order, please use our order form. This form is also found in our downloadable catalog.

Shipping and handling fees for continental U.S. and Alaska only. For international orders, please contact Aitken's Salmon Creek Garden in Vancouver, Washington.

We ship from August through October at the first of the week so that your order will be ready for you to plant on the weekend. Try not to request a date when your temperatures will be above 90 degrees Fahrenheit, but at least a month before your first frost.

Guarantee

All plants are freshly dug, individually labeled and healthy when shipped. The nursery is inspected by the State of Washington annually, and certified to be disease free. If there are any problems, please notify us within 10 days of receipt of shipment and we will replace any plants that you are not happy with. We can not accept responsibility for plants lost due to climate or garden conditions.

Substitution and Refunds

Supplies of plants are limited to stock. Orders are processed in the order received. Please order early and circle yes, no, or refund. Your check or money order must be sent with your order.

Shipping

Plants are shipped bare root. Bearded iris are cleaned and dry cured before packing. Beardless are cleaned and wet packed in a poly bag with a water polymer. All plants are individually labeled. Along with a copy of your order, you will receive a culture and care sheet. Local will-call customers may pick up their orders at the farm to avoid shipping charges.

Every effort is made to ship healthy true-to-name stock. Plants may not bloom the first year after transplanting. All orders are accepted subject to the availability of stock.
