Clint, check this out. I tried to order a few coneflowers from Forestfarm and this is the message I got at checkout. The only option is Via Air and it is $36.50 for shipping.
'shipping to the East is generally not feasible at this time of year. Please call to inquire about the possibility of ground shipping to the northern Midwestern states. If you wish to have some plants shipped via Air and some via ground, please make separate orders'.
Everyone else is shipping to the east, where are they? If they are on the west coast or something then I will forget the whole thing. They will be dead by the time they get here. I cannot afford to buy them an air ticket. LOL.
