Most plants are listed with price codes (A, B, C etc.) after each plant on the order form. Refer to the chart at the end of the order form or availability list for the corresponding price. Pricing structure favors the purchase of full trays.

2) How many plants to a tray?

For 5 pint containers, there are 6 plants per tray. For quart containers there are 15 per tray, except for Vinca, Aegopodium and Waldsteinia that have 12 per tray. For 3" pots there are 16 plants per tray. For 5" containers (Temperennials and some herbs) there are 8 plants per tray. 1 and 2 gallon containers are not shipped in trays, but you must purchase at least 6 for the discounted price.

3) I see a plant described in the catalog, but I cannot find it on the order form.

At the time the catalog was printed we had the plant available, but by the time the order form was printed, it had sold out. Generally if a plant is sold out in winter or spring, it will become available again in the summer.

4) What is the best time to place an order for spring so that I will get as few sold out as possible?

It is best to place an order September or October for the next spring. Our inventory is at its largest in September and is much smaller in May.

5) Can I come and pick up an order any time? Can I pull an order myself?

In April and May we do not allow customers to pull their own orders, as much of our plant material is already sold. You may always of course place an order via fax or phone that we will pull for you. Generally we need 2 days notice to pull an order and it is best to call 1 week in advance to schedule a pick up. Starting in June after we have shipped the majority of orders, customers may come and pull their own orders with out an appointment, using a current availability. Be aware that we have 5 different locations and that it can take up to 2 days to walk our fields completely. Refer to our hours of operation. Note that except for April through May, we are closed Friday afternoons after 1:00pm.

6) How do I become a customer?

If you are in the horticultural industry, merely place an order and provide us with complete customer information, such as name of company, address, and complete a tax ID form if you work in CT, NY, MA.

10) How do I order?

Call or fax your sales representative listed under the Sunny Border Nursery Staff directory on this website or fax or call the main office. For large orders it is best to mail or fax. You may also email an order, but we do not have an order form that goes directly to the office on the website at this time. Therefore you would have to save the order form to your desktop, fill it out and email back to us as an attachment or a copy.
