    Summer 2025 Shipping Update

    We work hard to ensure you receive healthy, thriving plants for your wildlife garden. To protect your order from extreme heat during transit, we are now operating on a modified shipping schedule. The safety of your plants is our top priority, and we closely monitor temperatures and weather events across the country.

    Please see the current shipping status for your region below:

    • Southeast: Shipping is currently paused. We expect to resume shipping in this region in September.
    • West Coast: Shipping is currently paused. We expect to resume shipping to this region in September. Plants in this region are now available for Fall Pre-Order.
    • All Other Regions (Northeast, Midwest, etc.): Shipping is currently paused. We anticipate resuming shipments to these areas in August as soon as the weather allows.

    Try the new Sprout chatbot at the bottom right of your screen to request an estimated shipping timeframe.

    If the shipping window for where you’re planting is open, your plants will ship within 10 business days* of the order date. You’ll receive a confirmation email from orders@gardenforwildlife.com with tracking information as soon as your order ships.

    *Important note: To ensure your plants arrive healthy, we may delay shipments to certain areas during times of extreme temperatures, natural disasters, or other conditions that will impact the plants during transit. Any delays will be clearly communicated. For more information, read our Shipping Policy or check our FAQs.

    We are currently shipping out pre-orders in your region. Pre-orders are shipped in the order that they were received.

    What is my USDA Hardiness Zone?

    Sometimes called “growing zones,” hardiness zones refer to a map developed by the USDA that separates the United States into regions based on the average low winter temperatures. The USDA Hardiness Zone Map is the standard by which gardeners and growers can determine which plants are most likely to thrive at a location. The map is based on the average annual minimum winter temperature, divided into 10-degree F zones and further divided into 5-degree F half-zones.

    When will my plants ship?

    Find your shipping region to see when the approximate shipping timeframe will be. All orders are filled in the order they are received, with the oldest pre-orders shipping first.

    Frequently Asked Questions
    • Product Description
    • Pin Oak (Quercus palustris) is a graceful, fast-growing native oak known for its distinct pyramidal shape, deeply lobed green leaves, and striking dark-red fall foliage. Reaching 60-70 feet tall (sometimes taller), this straight-trunked tree develops spreading to horizontal branches with fine, pin-like twigs, creating a broad, symmetrical canopy. As it matures, lower branches shed naturally, giving older trees a high-crowned, open appearance.

      Named for its many short, spur-like twigs, pin oak is one of the easiest oaks to transplant, thanks to its shallow, fibrous root system. It thrives in moist, acidic soils, tolerates poor drainage and occasional flooding, and provides essential habitat and food for wildlife—especially ducks, turkeys, songbirds, squirrels, and deer, which feed on its nutrient-rich acorns.

      Why Grow Pin Oak?

      • Fast-Growing & Long-Lived: One of the fastest-growing oaks, adding shade and beauty to landscapes within a few years.
      • Stunning Seasonal Color: Displays deep green foliage in summer that turns rich, dark red in fall, with leaves persisting into winter.
      • Thrives in Moist & Flood-Prone Areas: Adapted to wet soils and lowland areas, making it ideal for rain gardens and erosion control.
      • Wildlife Magnet: Produces acorns that are a vital food source for ducks, turkeys, songbirds, deer, and small mammals.
      • Essential for Pollinators: Supports over 500 species of butterfly and moth caterpillars, providing crucial food for birds and pollinators.
      • Resilient & Easy to Transplant: Unlike many other oaks, Pin Oak transplants easily and adapts well to urban settings.
      • Pollinator-Safe: Grown non-GMO and free of harmful neonicotinoids, promoting a healthy ecosystem for pollinators and wildlife.

      Available as single trees shipped in one-gallon containers to establish a beautiful, fast-growing shade tree in your landscape.

      Planting Tips: 

      1. Location: Prefers full sun for best growth and fall color. Thrives in medium to wet, acidic soils, tolerates poor drainage, and withstands occasional flooding. Avoid planting in alkaline soils, as it may develop iron chlorosis, causing yellowing leaves.
      2. Watering: Water regularly during the first few years to establish deep roots. Prefers consistent moisture but becomes drought-tolerant once established.
      3. Spacing & Planting: Space trees 20-40 feet apart for healthy canopy development. Works well as a shade tree, street tree, or rain garden addition.
      4. Maintenance: Naturally self-pruning, so lower limbs will shed over time—no need for excessive trimming. Mulch around the base to retain moisture and protect roots.

      For more information on planting, view our How to Plant Your Native Plants guide and other planting tips in the Garden for Wildlife Learning Center. 

      Plant a Pin Oak and enjoy fast-growing shade, stunning seasonal color, and a tree that supports both people and wildlife!

    Gorgeous Orange Blooms!

    Oh my gosh we so love these butterfly milkweed plants! Not only have we had monarchs visit us but several black swallowtail butterflies as well. Every time we look at these plants they make us smile. And to think we are helping out the butterfly population at the same time!

    Healthy Plants, Packaged Well

    I planted them right away. I was impressed with the packaging and the plant quality. The root system was healthy and the plants were not terribly dehydrated as many mail order plants can be.

    Worth the Investment

    I have been so impressed with each delivery I've received. The packaging is superb, keeping the plants in a safe, healthy state during shipping. Each plant has been healthy and strong, transplanting and thriving. Every single plant I ordered and put in my garden last year, came back strong this year - acting every bit like a 3rd year plant. I love my 3 Little Bluestem plugs and can't wait to watch them grow next year. Absolutely worth the cost!

    Beautiful and Resilient!

    I planted them this spring so no flowers yet but I did accidentally break the stem for two of the plants which had ALL the leaves. I thought the plant was a goner BUT it came back. The root system was strong even for the little plants and it is back to thriving again.
