NO DELIVERIES WEEK OF 2ND DECEMBER
Due to other commitments the next date for sending plants out will be Monday 9th December. Apologies for any inconvenience.
Welcome to the ONLINE SHOPPING PAGE. Here you will find the categories of plants currently available for sale, plus lots of helpful information about the types of plants that I grow, pot sizes and freight charges. I hope you enjoy looking through the plants I have available for sale. Many varieties are still coming so don’t be disappointed if something you have been wanting is not listed here, as chances are it will be available a little later. I don't have a catalogue produced once or twice per year, rather I tend to update the plants available in my online shop at least once a month for much of the year. We live in a reasonably temperate climate and as a nation we tend to garden all year round, so it makes sense to always have something coming on to offer keen gardeners around the country. If you would like to receive email notification of new plant updates please send me an email or add your name to the newsletter form at the bottom of the page.
The busy season is upon us...whilst every effort will be made to get your order processed and on its way to you as quickly as possible, please be prepared to wait an extra week for delivery. This may be necessary due to the large number of orders being received at the moment. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
To shop online please choose from the following categories:
I love growing all sorts of plants - and perennials and Salvias are so rewarding with so much variety on offer, that I have made these plants the main focus for my business. I offer an ever-changing selection of plants all year round, with the majority ready for spring and autumn planting times. My perennials are all grown and sold in two main pot sizes - 9cm and 1 litre - and occasionally slightly larger grades as well. This keeps the plants at a manageable size for delivery to you. From my own experience it also means that the plants are at just the right size for putting in the garden - not so small that they get lost, and not so big that you have to dig a huge hole to put them in!
My online store accepts credit card payments via Stripe or Paypal. Payment for email orders can be made via direct credit into my bank account upon confirmation of your order. I cannot accept credit card payments except when purchasing via the online shop.
Alternatively if you would like to order and pay via internet banking then please email me at [email protected] with your order and details, rather than using the shop. You are welcome to include a few alternatives, as some plants are in very short supply or sell out quickly. I can then reply with confirmation of your order and my bank details.
All orders are sent via CourierPost on Mondays and Tuesdays. Please use a street or rural address (no PO Boxes). All rural deliveries have an extra charge – please note that many small towns are now considered a rural delivery.
Freight charges for sending one carton of plants are below. As a general guide, one large carton will fit around 12x 1 litre pot size plants, or up to 20x 9cm pot size, or a combination of them is fine too (one 1 litre pot takes up the same space as two 9cm pots, so please allow for that). Freight charges per carton are:
- Upper South Island, including ChCh City up to 20x 9cm pots, or 12x 1 litre pots
- urban $10.00 rural $16.00
- Lower South Island, south of ChCh City boundary, up to 20x 9cm pots, or 12x 1 litre pots
