New Email 9/28/23
Time for a change... We have a New email address. Take note,
Contact us at: ( WebStaff-ENN@outlook.com ).
We are also at: ( EmpireNationalNursery4u@gmail.com )
And... the new webpage is at: ( http://05d60a9.netsolhost.com )
Ok, why the change? Time... When we started the online nursery in 1997, we have the website and that email, and that had gone on for about 25 years. For a hundred and one reasons, we made a major change and closed that website (cdr3.com) and that associated email address. We started the new streamlined webpage above, but had the email (nursery@empirenationalnursery.com). Now that has changed, and gets rid of a lot of junk mail...
Ordering... Yes, you can do so here through this blog, contact us via the New email address, or jump into the webpage and reach us there. Yes, always available via snail-mail, for sure...
What about the trees? Huh? Trees... yes, that is what we are all about, but we also sell a number of other items, like books, coins, sports trading cards, movies, trains, and a variety of other items (mostly via our Shops on Etsy and eBay). Trees are our core product line, but we like all of the other things too...
Fruit trees are something that has been of greater interest over the last several years, and we are trying to grow as many as possible as quickly as we can...
For Fall 2023, the fruit trees and all of the other trees and plants will become available when they become dormant again. That is weather-dependent, and based on previous seasons, some items become shippable as early as mid-October. Colder weather earlier will push trees into dormancy earlier, and if so, then we can resume shipping more earlier... Only the weather knows for sure, and once dormant, trees ship perfectly well.
Estimated Shipping Season for 2023-2024 will be "about" November 15th to May 15th. Once trees go dormant, they are asleep, so they can be lifted from the beds and stored in cold storage until shipped. Bookmark the webpage, and note our email address and "watch" for the availability to change. Once they are available to ship, we will update the webpage accordingly. You can always ask us if you have needs, wants, or questions...
Now one more rambling bit... We have a slogan, "Plan Early, Order Early, and Take Delivery Early for the Best selection". Here again, weather often dictates what we can do with shipping live plants (best while dormant), but supplies of plants vary from season to season. When we are out, then it may be a year or longer before we can grow them back into our inventory. Makes sense. But also, once the plants go dormant, then plant as early as practical. For the southern half of the country, plant from November through Winter. For the northern half of the country, planting will be weather-dependent moreso, which may be mid-Winter through late-Spring. Every location is different, but plant as soon as possible (or pot them to plant later). Waiting for Spring or late-Spring to plant is usually too Late! Too late because trees are not sensitive like tomatoes or peppers, and, the supply often runs out. Think about these things...
Enough said about stuff, our point was to relate the new email address.
Get ready for Fall planting!
