Choose Your Country
Note: At Jackson & Perkins, we are committed to shipping healthy live plants at the ideal planting time for your growing zone. Because Canada spans a wide range of climates, shipping dates are adjusted by region and growing zone to help protect plants from cold damage. The schedule below reflects our current estimated shipping windows for this season.
Important: In select mild-climate regions, a limited quantity of orders may ship during a brief early-season window in late February or early March. After this initial release, shipping may pause until spring conditions improve, when regular shipments resume. This approach allows us to take advantage of favorable early weather while prioritizing plant health.
| Canadian Plant Hardiness Zone | Limited Early Shipping | Main Shipping Window | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0a–2b | Not Available for Shipping | Extremely cold climates with very short growing seasons | |
| 3a–3b | — | Early May | Shipping begins once frost risk has passed |
| 4a–4b | — | Late April | Weather-dependent based on spring conditions |
| 5a | — | Mid–Late April | Most Central & Eastern regions |
| 5b–7b (British Columbia) | Late Feb–Early Mar (Limited) | Late March–April | Earlier shipping due to BC’s milder coastal climate |
| 5b–7b (Rest of Canada) | — | Late March–April | Shipping begins later to protect plant health |
| 8a–9a | Late Feb–Early Mar (Limited) | April | Warmest Canadian growing zones |
