Winter shutdown weeks: November 2-November 9. November 30-December 15. January 4- January 18. There will be no shipping during these times.
Yes, we are sold out of a lot items, especially plug flats, due to early high demand. Most of these are available on “Back-Order” and will ship when ready. An email will be sent within 24 hours of the order (excluding weekends and Holidays) with expected ship date. Lead time on back orders varies with season and item. Contact us sales@moonshinedesignsnursery.com for details.
If you do not receive this confirmation, check your SPAM folder. We suggest ordering early to guarantee availability, especially Lavender plugs, as these sell out quickly.
Please do not choose USPS Priority Mail for plug flats or shipment will be either at your risk or cancelled!
Online inventory will be updated as items are ready for shipment if not already pre ordered. Again, lead time on back orders will depend on what the item is, and if it is already in production. If the item does not show “Available on Back Order”, then we are sold out of that item for the year.
Please note that most 125 count plug flats are “grow-to-order” and are rarely grown on speculation.

Neonicotinoids (Neonics): WE DO NOT USE THEM!!
We also keep Honey bees and the use of Neonic insecticides are VERY harmful to beneficial pollinators such as Honey bees. We receive a lot of questions regarding our use of chemical pest controls on our products and Neonics use is the primary inquiry. We hope this will clear this up. For more information on Neonicotinoids, CLICK HERE
Although we are not a Certified Organic operation, we use natural pest controls where ever possible. Items intended for Human consumption, such as herbs, are never sprayed with chemical insecticides or fungicides, are greenhouse grown, and are in compliance with the USDA/APHIS Japanese Beetle Harmonization Program for shipping Interstate.
Inventory quantities updated as often as possible and as items become available to ship.
Seeds, Sedums, Sedum plug flats, and certain other designated items ship year-around. May be dormant when shipped in winter. Trees and shrubs ship late March through October. Most perennials are available for winter shipment, unless sold out, and will ship dormant.
We encourage pre-ordering of plug flats for shipment. These will “Back-order” and will be produced for you. While we do grow some on “speculation”, popular varieties sell out fast.
