About The Artist
Auguste Rodin (1840-1917)
Auguste Rodin, often credited with revitalizing sculpture as a medium for profound personal expression, reshaped the art form with his innovative approach. Educated at the Paris École des Beaux-Arts, Rodin's work evolved from conventional forms to complex, deeply emotive sculptures, establishing him as the leading French sculptor of his era. His pieces, like "Danaid" and "Study of the Human Face," exemplify the naturalism movement with their lifelike portrayal of human emotion and form.
Born into a working-class Parisian family in 1840, Rodin began his artistic journey at a young age, teaching himself to draw before facing rejection from prestigious art schools. After a period with a Christian Order, he rediscovered his passion for sculpting and honed his craft as an ornamental mason. His breakthrough came with "The Thinker," which challenged contemporary sculptural norms with its naturalistic depiction of the human figure.
Rodin's prolific career spanned monumental sculptures and expressive graphic art, often exploring themes of sensuality and human anatomy with unyielding realism. Despite initial criticism, his commitment to his artistic vision eventually earned him recognition and acclaim, solidifying his place as one of the world's foremost sculptors by 1900.

Plant Shipping
Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.
Winter to Early Spring
We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.
Summer
If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.
Fall into Winter
We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!

Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
