How long will it take to get to me?

QLD deliveries expect to be delivered in 2-4 days.
NSW and VIC 4-6 days
Our plants are watered and packed to ensure they stay hydrated and happy for up to 3 weeks.
How long will it take to fruit?
These details can be found on each plants description. Generally for a grafted, marcotted or cutting grown tree 1-2 years or a seedling 3-5 years.

How long will it take when im waiting for a tree to come back available?
We strive to keep as many plants available all year as we can but this isn't always possible. Make sure you have left your details to be notified when the product is back in stock so you dont miss out!
How big will my plant be?
As our boxes are 91 cm high your plant will be within this height range. A lot of our plants are bigger than this and we endeavour to fold the growth down in to the box. On some occasions we need to cut the tree to fit. Don't worry a little pruning will have your plants push new growth quickly.
Will a tropical plant grow in a cold climate?
Tropical and sub tropical plants do best with temperatures above 5 degrees. To ensure the best success we recommend protecting your tree from frost, cold wind and having the warmest position possible for success. We find following these simple steps give your plants the best success in a happy life.
