Few things to remember pertaining to Bare Root plant orders

Damage can occur when plants are left in the sun, or all day on a porch in hot weather. If possible, have them shipped to an address where they can be cared for immediately, or provide instructions for where a carrier can leave them in the shade. Open the box immediately upon receiving your plants, and put them in a cool shaded spot. Plant ASAP, preferably the same day, keeping them cool and moistened until they are in the pond or in the ground. Roots should be given special attention to prevent drying.
