Enduring Beauty for Every Season
During a period of climate instability, the best way to ensure good outcomes in gardening, and in life, is to purchase and plant perennials, especially trees and shrubs. Dragonfly Gardens is proud of our commitment to ensuring customers have every opportunity to put roots in the ground that will create beauty, enhance soil health, withstand weather extremes, produce food, save energy, build habitat and absorb carbon. All of it. And, we make it easy by stocking a wide variety of perennial plants, trees and shrubs, advising customers at every point the ins and outs of sensible husbandry.
Bare Roots for a Resilient Future
It all starts in April with Dragonfly’s storied Bare Root Sale, the biggest and best way to get a leg up on trees and shrubs. The stock comes in dormant from points distant — fruit trees, shade trees, ornamentals, natives — the whole gamut. All of it fully 40% off potted prices. Why? Being dormant allows these trees and shrubs to travel without soil or pots, and with minimal labor inputs. That keeps their expense low, and combined with the many varieties, high quality, and ease of planting — well, it’s a one-of-a-kind opportunity to transform a landscape.
Perennial Plant Selection
Similarly, our perennial plant selection is one of the region’s finest. These are large specimens, planted in larger containers so their roots can continue to grow during the season. Perennial plants, along with shrubs, are integral to creating a beautiful and fulfilling landscape. They return year-after-year, gracing our lives and our yard with a lively display of color, transforming and supporting the living landscape. Our perennial plant catalog, along with our shrub list, is a constant work in progress as new orders come in and other varieties sell out. We ask customers to refer to our website or call ahead if you have a particular specimen in mind. We do our best to keep lists and catalogs up to date, and also respond to email inquiries.
Delivery and Ordering
Delivery is available with rates depending on distance and order size. Plant pick up is always welcome. Please make an appointment for plant pick up so we can provide you personalized attention and advice. Ordering ahead is strongly encouraged for large orders so we can check availability and ensure your plants are ready upon your arrival.
How to Order
Please fill out our order form and email it to info@dragonflygardens.net. Our pre-ordered flats will incur a flat fee of $5/flat.
Large order (16 plants/species or more)
We will fulfill preorders only for single species flats or half-flats of two species (half-flat mean a minimum of 16 plants per species–this means a mixed flat is split into two species).
Small orders (fewer than 16 pots of one species)
If you plan to purchase a smaller quantity or want to mix fewer than 16 pots of a species, please feel free to come and shop our new, expanded native retail area.
Please remember that plants are living things so everything in our catalog may not be available at all times. We’d be happy to answer your questions about current availability. If we don’t have what you’re looking for, we can let you know when it might be ready or suggest a good substitution.
