What We Ship

The Benefits of Bare Root Plants

Bare root plants are shipped without soil or pots, making them lightweight and easy to handle. They arrive dormant, ready to be planted and thrive as beautiful, healthy additions to your garden.

Cost-Effective

With no heavy pots or soil, you'll save 50-60% on shipping costs, and you can easily plant our plants yourself—no equipment needed, just a spade for digging small holes.

Hassle-Free

Bare root plants are hassle-free because they're lightweight, easy to handle, and require minimal packaging. They establish quickly, saving you time and effort in planting and maintenance.

Better Growth

Bareroot dormant plants are more hardy because they adapt better to new environments, with stronger root systems that establish quickly, leading to greater resilience and improved survival rates in various conditions.

Eco-Friendly

How do I care for my Dicentra Canadensis Squirrel Corn?

Each box contains detailed care instructions and information about your product. But here's the basics.

Care Tips

Squirrel Corn thrives in well-drained, moist soil. Keep it watered consistently, especially during dry spells. Fertilize lightly in early spring. This perennial benefits from regular division every 3-4 years to maintain vigor and spread. Avoid overwatering to prevent root rot.

Light Requirements

Squirrel Corn (Dicentra canadensis) thrives in partial to full shade. It prefers excellent, moist conditions and will do well in areas with filtered sunlight or dappled shade, mimicking its natural woodland habitat. Avoid direct sunlight to prevent leaf scorch.

Can’t wait!

I planted all my wild flowers yesterday in a “Memory Garden.” My son, Bill, and I always took Spring walks in the woods looking for flowering treasures. When his son, Liam was old enough he joined us. Bill passed away from cancer 3 years ago and at 82 I’m leery about woods walks.. Hopefully these flowers will thrive!

I was looking for a bleeding-heart plant and Squirrel Corn came up in my search, it looks very similar, so I decided to give it a try. I ordered it, it came in and looks like a corn, I planted it so now I wait but I'm excited for this heart shaped plant to bloom in all its glory.

I loved the care and attention to packing the plants! I didn't know the plant is toxic to pets. I forgot to research. I gave them to a friend...
