How Your Plants Are Prepared & Delivered
We work exclusively with professional growers and prepare each order with plant health as the priority. Before dispatch, plants are checked, watered where appropriate, and securely packed to minimise stress during transit.
Our delivery process is designed to protect plant quality, not rush orders through unsuitable freight channels. This ensures your plants arrive in excellent condition and perform well once planted.
Access & Placement Information
To allow for safe and efficient delivery:
- Delivery is made to a safe, accessible ground-level location
- Drivers cannot carry plants long distances, upstairs, or through apartment buildings
- Large or heavy plants are delivered kerbside or to a driveway where vehicle access allows
If your property has restricted access or special requirements, please contact us before placing your order so we can advise accordingly.
Regional & Larger Orders
For larger orders, bulk quantities, or advanced plants, delivery pricing is based on vehicle size and location. In some cases, custom logistics may be required. If so, our team will confirm details with you prior to dispatch.
