Now shipping for spring!

Our growing areas are thawed out, lily bulbs are in cold storage, and spring shipping is in full swing. As of mid-April our turnaround time is about 3 to 5 days but as our busiest time approaches during May, our turnaround sometimes gets closer to 2 weeks, so order as soon as possible and then let us know your preferred shipping time during checkout. This way you get on our schedule and we will send your shipment when you are ready to plant. With most perennials they transplant easiest while they are still dormant and they will wake up with the rest of your plants. If you can work the soil in your garden without it being water logged then you can plant our field grown, freshly dug perennials. In April our hostas are shipped completely dormant in peat moss and starting in May they will be shipped wrapped in wet paper towels as they will be just starting to emerge from the ground. Contact us if you need help picking out a good shipping time or have any planting questions.

As advance orders come in, some items are going out of stock. If an item says out of stock you can click the button to add your email to be notified when that item is back in stock. This is a great way for you to know as soon as the item is available again for advance order, and also gives us the chance to keep up with our production needs for the future.

Feel free to email us or call us toll free at 866-568-1474 with any questions and thank you very much for your continued support!

Sincerely yours, Chris Wilson and Brian Hall, Hallson Gardens

We will continue to update our website for 2013 through December however any item online now can be ordered in advance whenever you are ready. Hostas are completely updated and we continue to work on perennials and lily bulbs.

If an item is out of stock you can click the button to add your email to be notified when that item is back in stock. This is a great way for you to know as soon as the item is available again for advance order, and also gives us the chance to keep up with our production needs.

Fall shipping continues for a few more weeks, plus your November orders will help with disaster relief:

Hallson Gardens will donate 20% of all plant orders shipped during the month of November to the Red Cross to help with disaster relief from hurricane Sandy or wherever the Red Cross needs it. So add to your garden this fall and help the Red Cross at the same time! We will send a check for 20% of our November plant sales to the Red Cross after we stop shipping just before Thanksgiving.

We continue shipping each week on Monday, Tuesday, and some limited shipping on Wednesday for the next few weeks. Your order will be freshly dug and shipped on our next available day, or specify your preferred shipping date in the comment field during checkout. Our special offers of $5.00, $15.00, or $40.00 off will apply to all internet orders for fall shipping, plus check out our great Sale Items and our Buy 2 get 1 Free Specials! With the Buy 2 get 1 Free Specials be sure to add items in groups of 3 to your shopping cart, mix and match, and each 3rd item will automatically be free.

Lily bulbs are available for the fall and Hellebores are also updated. Remember, we only ship hellebores in the fall, and they are excellent field grown clumps that could flowers as soon as next spring.

Now taking orders for fall shipping.

Our website is being updated with our perennial inventory for the fall and we can start taking orders for fall shipping at any time. Fall, freshly dug, bare root shipping begins the week of September 17th or you can specify a later date during checkout. Our special offers of $5.00, $15.00, or $40.00 off will apply to all internet orders for fall shipping. Sorry, we are not yet taking orders for the spring.

Lily bulbs for the fall are not yet updated and won't be updated for a couple more weeks. The lilies here are still going strong and are not yet going down for the year so it is hard to get an idea of how well the bulbs are forming. We may have to continue updating the lilies all through September and shipping for fall lily bulbs won't start until at least October 1st. Hellebores will also be updated within the next couple weeks and fall shipping for Helleborus will begin the week of October 1st.

Feel free to email us or call us toll free at 866-568-1474 with any questions and thank you very much for your continued support!

Thank you for visiting our website! Our 13th year selling plants by mail has started off really well and we've finally had a chance to update our hosta inventory after a busy spring. The plants available online are looking great and if you have a chance to stop out and visit us in person you will be able to see even more plants and more variety here. The nursery is also jam packed with many great perennials for sun and shade, including tons of plants that we don't offer by mail such as groundcovers, shrubs, and water plants.

We have also just updated our Bearded Iris list for 2012 and have some great new additions for the summer. We can ship any time now and will continue shipping hostas, daylilies, and Iris all summer long.

Thank you again for a great start to 2012! If you have any questions don't hestitate to contact us and thank you very much for your continued support!

Sincerely yours, Chris Wilson and Brian Hall, Hallson Gardens

Thank you for a great spring season! Our 13th year selling plants by mail has definitely started out with some strange weather, so unfortunately we are ending our spring perennial shipping a little early, due to the unusually early and warm spring, but will be shipping hostas and daylilies through the summer and then begin shipping many perennials again during the third week of September. A few select items will continue shipping into June, but for most it is getting a bit too hot to transplant any longer for the spring.

This spring's weather has also proven a challenge for field grown hostas and, due to frost damage, many of our hostas are listed as "out of stock" at this time. We still have a large inventory of plants here, but they do not look their best so we took them off the website for a while. As plants begin to recover we will take a new inventory in early June and completely update our hosta listing, hoping to add many things back into inventory. And if you are planning a trip here you will find that we still have thousands of plants to choose from and as long as you can look past some of the blemishes there is plenty to see here!

Thank you again for a great start to 2012! If you have any questions don't hestitate to contact us and thank you very much for your continued support! Sincerely yours, Chris Wilson and Brian Hall, Hallson Gardens

We are happy to announce that the new 2012 catalog is completed and we are taking advance orders for the spring!

We are excited to bring you our new plant listings for our 18th season in business and our 13th season shipping plants. This year we have 70 new or returning hostas, 66 new lily bulbs, and 80 new perennial plants for sun and shade. We are also offering larger sizes on our lily bulbs this year and will be adding another storage freezer to keep up with the increased demand for these great bulbs.

You can browse our complete hosta and perennial offerings here on our website or if you want a hard copy you can download our plant lists from our catalog download page.

If you have any questions don't hestitate to contact us and thank you very much for your continued support! Sincerely yours, Chris Wilson and Brian Hall, Hallson Gardens

Plant shipping is now finished for 2011 and we are working on our 2012 catalog at this time.

We would like to thank you all for your support in 2011 and for helping us to have our most successful year yet! We continue to ship non plant items but due to snow we are no longer able to dig for this year. We will have our hosta listing completed in the next couple weeks and perennials will be done around the first of January.

If you have any questions don't hestitate to write and thank you for your business! Chris Wilson and Brian Hall, Hallson Gardens

Fall perennial shipping continues into November however the nursery has ended regular hours and is open by appointment or by chance.

The weather is turning cold here in Michigan and we've had a killing frost so all hostas and perennials are still freshly dug but will be shipped without foliage. Our special offers and sale items are good for fall shipments only. The website will be updated for 2012 in December.

Fall perennial shipping continues into November however the nursery will be ending regular hours after mid-October and then we will be open by appointment or by chance.

The weather is turning cold here in Michigan and although we haven't had a killing frost the hostas are starting to go down for the season. We will continue to try and ship hostas with their leaves intact but some may be shipped without leaves as they start to go dormant.

Spring is finally here and our busy shipping season is running smoothly! The hostas, perennials, and even the lily bulbs are all looking great this year, thanks to a slightly mild, snow covered winter here in Michigan and a slow start to spring followed by fairly normal spring rainfall. We have been lucky to avoid all the really bad storms, and wish the best to all those affected around the country by drought, tornadoes, and floods.

We are currently shipping on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Saturday, and new orders for immediate shipping are going out in about 3 to 5 days. If you have a special time constraint or a special shipping request let us know and we'll do our best to accommodate.

Think spring and check out all of our new items for 2011. This season we have over 160 new items, including our own exciting introduction, Hosta 'Radiant Star' and the wonderful pink Annabelle Hydrangea 'Invincibelle Spirit' (PPAF).

We start shipping some items at the end of March and can start digging in April but can schedule your order to ship at your preferred planting time through May. And the sooner you order the better as we reserve plants in as your order is received, not as they ship, and some items will sell out.

The nursery will open to the public on Friday, May 7th at 9am and we will be open every day from 9am to 9pm into October. If you would like to order ahead you can pick up your order here in Cement City, just choose "pick up at nursery" for the shipping method during checkout. You can save on shipping charges, and if you shop after we open you can browse from many other plants not listed online.

Thank you very much for your support in 2010!

We are currently working on our 2011 catalog and will have the hostas updated around Christmas time and have the rest of the catalog updated in early January. Once the 2011 online catalog is completed we will start taking advance orders for the spring shipping season.

We begin shipping lily bulbs for 2011 at the end of March and the rest of the catalog can ship starting in early April into May. Advance orders can be scheduled to ship in April or May, simply indicate your preferred shipping time in the comment field at the end of checkout.

Thank you again for all of your support. We look forward to working with you again in 2011!

Spring shipping is underway here at Hallson Gardens. New orders can be processed and shipped in about a week, or you can specify your specific shipping time in the comment field on the last step of checkout.

Remember, since all of the plants we sell are hardy perennials grown outdoors you can plant as soon as your garden drains well and is workable.  You don't have to wait until last frost as these plants are hardened off and mostly dormant still, so they can be planted, watered lightly (most plants don't like to be over watered this time of year), and they will emerge with the rest of your garden.

If you have any questions don't hesitate to contact us.  Since we are in the nursery and growing areas this time of year the best way to contact us is by email, or leave a message if you get our answering machine.

Thank you for your business!
