We use a reputable Nursery Freighter to deliver our plants locally and to Gold Coast/Brisbane/Sunshine Coast/Central Coast/Sydney/Melbourne.  They deliver to your door.

Fastway Couriers  will deliver boxed plant orders (200mm/250mm size pots) to your door. They go to the zones marked - UP AS FAR AS CAIRNS AND DOWN TO SOUTH AUSTRALIA (Metro areas only). If unsure of your zone please give us a call.  Alternatively we can send boxes via Australia Post registered mail.

With this method your order will be fully packaged and have a tracking number and should arrive quick !  Most plants arrive in excellent condition - they actually enjoy the journey !!!

What to do when your plants arrive imagePackaging / Pot sizesWhat to do when your plants arrive

 

By Courier -  Plants will be bagged and secured. Your order should arrive quickly to your door.  Advisable to cut down the box using a knife, and carefully remove plants, some branches maybe curled around so release carefully, take off plastic, and stand somewhere in partial sunlight.   Give them a good drink immediately !

By Courier means we can send just one bamboo to you at a reasonable cost.  Or you can send as a GIFT - we will pop in a card free of charge  (please let us know the date required !)

Due to size restraints some bamboos sent by courier maybe trimmed a little to height.  This does not affect the product.  Wherever possible we will endeavour to curl foliage into the packaging... so be careful when opening !

By Road Transport -  Recommended for larger orders i.e. over 10 plants or  in 300 mm pots or more, up to a height of 3 metres your bamboo will be shipped by reliable Nursery freighters.  They will be hand loaded on and off their vehicle.  Pots will be labelled - packaging is not required.  

If you require large landscape/mature size bamboos - special handling is required -  we will email back with a quotation. If your property is in a business traffic area or access is problematic please advise us in 'special instructions' *

Please Note:  Your plants will leave here in good condition, well watered.  Please ensure once they arrive you give them a good soak.  To maintain good health until planted store in a warm sheltered area and WATER daily. Ideal to plant asap after receipt - Please see planting instructions.
