2022 Mail order trial week

We have just activated a bunch of stock of plants and water lilies on the web site for mail order.

Orders will be sent on Monday 17th of January.

Since the week after will include the Anzac day public holiday we will close orders on the 17th to avoid sending out orders in a short mailing week.

This will also allow us to asses if 2021 mail delays are still an issue. Assuming packages arrive in a timely manner mail order will resume after the Anzac day week.

2021 Mail orders closed due to postal delays

We have disabled mail orders entirely on the web site listing all items as out of stock.

This is because of increasing delays in express post parcel delivery at the moment resulting in many packages being delayed or lost.

Since our products are live plants even an excessive delay can result in the effective loss of the plants.

All outstanding orders should at this point have been sent.

A significant improvement in postage times before Christmas is unlikely so mail orders are likely to only resume some time in 2022.

In the mean time our retail nursery remains open to the public for retail purchase of a wider range of more advanced potted plants. Subject to covid safety rules and any changes to them.
