Canada Post CUPW announces national strike

For our Canadian customers:

We have made UPS shipping available for any orders that you wish to receive quickly. Rates are available at checkout.

During the strike we are still accepting orders for Canada Post shipping, and preparing them for shipping. They will be put into the Postal System as soon as possible. Since Canada Post will be delivering on a first-in, first-out basis, your order will be ready to go. 

Here is some of the information that Canada Post has provided:

Mail and parcels will not be processed or delivered for the duration of the national strike, and some post offices will be closed. Service guarantees will be impacted for items already in the postal network. And no new items will be accepted until the national disruption is over.

All mail and parcels in the postal network will be secured and delivered as quickly as possible on a first-in, first-out basis once operations resume. 

For our USA customers: There are no delays to our standard shipping times. 

International customers (outside of North America): UPS courier shipping has no delays. A Canada Post option is available but will have delays due to the postal strike. Canada Post orders are shipped on a first-in, first-out basis once mail services resume.

WINTERBERRY, CANADA HOLLY

Ilex verticillata, the winterberry, is a species of holly native to eastern North America in the United States and southeast Canada, from Newfoundland west to Ontario and Minnesota, and south to Alabama.

Other names that have been used include black alder, Canada holly, coralberry, fever bush, Michigan holly, or winterberry holly.

Ilex verticillata - the American winterberry - is prized as an ornamental plant in gardens for the midwinter splash of bright color from densely packed berries, whose visibility is heightened by the loss of foliage; therefore it is popular even where other, evergreen, hollies are also grown. The bare branches covered in berries are also popular for cutting and use in floral arrangements. In autumn/fall the leaves turn yellow sometimes with tinges of red and orange.

It is easy to grow, with very few diseases or pests. Although wet acidic soils are optimal, the winterberry will grow well in the average garden. At least one male plant must be planted in proximity to one or more females for them to bear fruit.

Type: Hardy shrub/tree

Hardiness zones: 3-9

Seeds per packet: 10
