When is my order processed? ^
Orders for live topiaries placed by 11am on Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday will typically ship the same day. Orders placed Thursday, Friday, Saturday or Sunday will typically ship on Monday or Tuesday of the following week. We do this to keep your live plant or tree from sitting in a shipper's truck over the weekend where temperatures can reach extremes. Preserved Topiaries and Wire Frame Art will arrive to you within 1-2 weeks from the order date.

How will I know if you've received my order? ^
Once your online order is placed, you will receive an order confirmation via email. Additionally, you'll receive a second email which contains your shipping and tracking information.

Can I change or cancel my order after it's been submitted? ^
If we (or for items shipped directly from the grower) have not yet shipped your order, you can request a change or cancel your order. Be sure to include your full name and address information, as well as your order confirmation number. Please provide complete details on the information that you would like to correct or change. When we have made the change on your order, we will send you an email confirmation. If we are unable to change or cancel your order, we will notify you via email.

What shipping methods are available? ^
All orders are shipping via UPS or Federal Express 2-Day Air, 3-Day Air or Ground.

What will it cost me to ship? ^
Currently we have FREE SHIPPING for orders over $25!  Delivery charges will be calculated automatically when you proceed to the checkout on our site. There is a tool prior to entering your credit card that allows you to estimate and compare shipping alternatives. If we need to ship your order in parts, delivery and service charges will be charged on a pro-rated basis.

Do you ship internationally? ^
Our plants speak fluent Spanish and look European, but The Topiary Store ships to the United States and Canada only.

Will sales tax be charged on items I order? ^
We are required to collect applicable sales tax for all California orders.

Can I ship items to more than one address when placing my order online? ^
Yes you can!  The Topiary Store is happy to ship your items to multiple shipping addresses at no extra charge.  Simply check the "Ship to Multiple Addresses" box on your Shopping Cart.  You will have the opportunity to add addresses to your account, and have them saved for future orders as well!

You have the ability to manage your address book at any time by clicking on the My Account link.

If my selection is backordered, what happens? ^
Occasionally, a product is more popular than we anticipate and we temporarily run out of stock. When that happens, we immediately notify you via email with the anticipated shipping date. We ship all ordered items as they become available, so if you have ordered more than one item and any of those items is on backorder, you will receive multiple shipments.

If you would like to inquire about the status of a backordered item, please Order Status and include your name, address and order confirmation number.

An item I've ordered is on backorder and I do not want to wait for it. How can I cancel it? ^
To cancel any backordered item, please Contact Us and include your name, address and order confirmation number, if known, and the item you wish to cancel. If the item has not already been shipped to you, we will cancel it immediately. If it has already shipped, simply return the items that you do not want and your account will be credited for the items returned.

If my selection is cancelled, what happens? ^
We do our best to closely monitor inventory levels and keep The Topiary Store as current as possible, but occasionally we receive multiple orders for items that are being discontinued and subsequently become permanently unavailable before we are able to remove those products from our site. When this happens, we will notify you that the item has been cancelled and may suggest an alternate product. Because we bill you as items are shipped, your credit card will not be charged for any items that are unavailable. If an item is discontinued, we may substitute merchandise of equal or better value. We will call you to inform you that a substitute item is available and will only ship it to you with your permission.

How do I check the status of my order or contact you if I have a question about my order? ^
If you have any question about your order, including order status, you can Contact Us. Please include your name, address, and order confirmation number in addition to your question so that we may assist you as quickly as possible.

Can I order by phone?
^
To keep costs down we try to handle the majority of our communications via email. If you'd prefer to speak via telephone, just Contact Us via email, include your phone number and we will happily call you back. We try to reply to all emails in a timely manner, usually within 4 hours if sent Monday-Friday between the hours of 8am-5pm Pacific Standard Time.
