Planting trees can seem like a daunting task! So, not to worry, we have put together a guide that contains 13 detailed steps to planting containerized trees. These steps are also applicable to shrubs. Please pay attention to the watering recommendations, particularly during the winter. Many new plantings can struggle in their first few years due to lack of water, which is especially the case when we experience summer/winter seasons with extreme temperature swings and little to no precipitation.

For those of you who are running into health issues with your newly purchased trees or shrubs...where you are experiencing leaf drop, brown or yellowing leaves, or other concerning symptoms...we are changing how we process our warranties. The warranty policy is still the same where you must be within 6 months of the purchase date if your purchase did not include root stimulator or within one year of the purchase date if your purchase did include root stimulator. Discounts still void the warranty. Additionally, remember that this is only a One Time 50% store credit for each zone hardy tree or shrub that was purchased from Greenscape Gardens. Multiple warranty claim requests for the same plant will be denied.
To better serve all of our customers, we are no longer accepting warranty claims on our zone hardy trees & shrubs in the store without your request first being approved via the form below. What this means is that we need to see pictures of the affected plant(s) along with a copy of the purchase receipt(s), before you get to the store. This will be particularly important during our peak months of April and May. If you arrive before you get in touch with us via this form, processing your warranty claim will be delayed and will need to be completed prior to arriving for store credit.
Before you arrive to Greenscape Gardens you must first fill out the form above along with uploading all appropriate files (10MB maximum). Our team will work on your request as soon as possible. Please allow us a few business days to ensure that we have everything needed to process your request. Please don't dig up to bring in dead trees or shrubs to Greenscape.
What You Need to Do:
1. Gather These Items:
~ Photos: 2 close-up photos of the issue and 1 wide shot of the entire plant.
~ Receipt: A digital or physical copy of your purchase receipt.
2. Fill Out the Form Above:
~When filling out the fields for your contact information, please make sure your name, email & phone number match your existing customer profile. Additionally, double check for typos before submitting.
~ Upload the photos and receipt (4 items in total).
~ Answer the following questions:
- What are the lighting conditions that this plant is exposed to throughout the day?
- Was this tree/shrub planted immediately after it was purchased? If not, how long did it spend in the nursery pot and what was its sun exposure during the time between the purchase and planting?
- Has there been any unusual disturbances to the area where this was planted that could have led to abnormal distress/decline?
- Trees & shrubs need extra care after planting. How many days per week did you water? Please elaborate on your watering routine, including your dosing amounts.
- Have you watered around the root ball at the dripline by hand for 60 seconds per dose? (Or up to 2 minutes for trees that started in containers 10 gallon or larger)?
- Did you rely only on a sprinkler system for watering the tree/shrub?
- If the tree/shrub started to decline after the winter season, how often did you water over the winter?
- During the winter, did you give it approximately 3 gallons each time you watered provided that there was minimal precipitation?

Why are we changing how we process warranties?
The answer to this question has several reasons. First and foremost, to better serve all of our customers by maintaining a smooth, efficient & accurate checkout experience as well as taking this as a learning opportunity for ourselves. Second, to devote the proper amount of time and attention to those who need extra assistance with plant health care and subsequent warranty situations. Thirdly, to better utilize the time and knowledge of our staff and to improve the overall operation of the garden center. We realize that this is drastically different to how this process has been completed in the past, however, this new process will ensure that everyone has a positive experience.
Disclaimers ** Please reach out to us prior to arriving to expedite warranty claim processing. Your warranty claim request will be denied if you do not include pictures of the plant and the receipt in your submission. Once you have reached out via this form, it may take several business days before you hear back from us, so please plan accordingly to not miss your deadline. ** Please remember, only zone hardy trees & shrubs, including native trees & shrubs and edible trees are eligible for a warranty. All other plants such as tropicals, annuals, perennials, houseplants, edibles and citrus do not qualify for a warranty. ** Please contact us at support@greenscapegardens.com if you have additional questions, concerns or information. **
