Conditions of Sale
We take great care to provide good quality, healthy nursery stock. However, we can give no guarantee of our stock’s productivity or life span. Buyers assume responsibility of the plants as soon as they receive them. Buyers must report to the DNR Webster Nursery any stock received in unsatisfactory condition within FIVE (5) business days of receiving their seedlings. We will review all claims and will either replace seedlings or issue credit when justified. At no time will the DNR Webster Nursery be responsible for more than the purchase price. DNR Webster Nursery does not guarantee survivability of plants after they leave our care, either when the buyer picks them up or after we ship the seedlings to the buyer’s destination.
 
More About Our Seedlings
DNR staff select seed, monitor seedling development, and carry out cultural techniques to grow robust seedlings for specific site conditions. Understanding site conditions is key to seedling establishment and survival. It can be helpful to review the Planting Forest Seedlings brochure, browse descriptions of the nursery’s tree seedlings, and discuss site conditions and seedling choices with a local Service Forester. Starting in December, nursery staff lift dormant seedlings from nursery beds, hand sort them to assure top quality, and package and place the seedlings in cold storage to await shipment.
