FAQ's
Can I add other products to an outdoor plant order?
Yes, but only for local delivery.
This is because our outdoor plants are shipped Nationwide from our distribution centre, and everything else is hand-delivered by us locally.
In this case the shipment will be split, which means there will be two delivery charges and dates.
For more info see our Delivery/click & collect page.
When will my order be delivered?
Outdoor plant orders received before 10am are dispatched that day and delivered to North Island main centres the next day. South Island orders take 2-3 days, and Rural deliveries add an additional day.
For local deliveries, you can pick any date.
