If you're placing a large order for mountain-grown plants and are four hours or less driving distance from Asheville, the nurseries can likely deliver your order. Go to the Volume Pricing page under the menu on the M. R. Gardens website to view discounts for large quantities and suggested delivery fees. You can also contact Tanager Plants directly to place your order for their plants and discuss associated delivery fees.
