Export process

Plan the shipment around your destination.

Plant health, packaging and documents depend on the species and import rules of the receiving country. We confirm what can be arranged for each order.

01

Share requirements

Tell us plant names, sizes, quantities, destination country or port, and import rules you already know.

02

Confirm plants

We discuss available plants and review photos or specifications where applicable.

03

Agree quotation

Price, packing, freight plan and any available documents are set out before payment.

04

Prepare shipment

Plants are prepared to the agreed specifications and shipping format.

Packing and handling

Prepare the plants for the route.

Live plants need packing that protects them during handling and transit. The suitable method depends on plant size, root condition, destination rules and shipping mode.

Before dispatch, we confirm the agreed presentation, packing format and shipment details with the buyer. If the destination restricts soil, ask us to discuss whether bare-root preparation is suitable for the requested plant.

Discuss documents before ordering.

Import permits, phytosanitary certificates and treatments depend on the plant and destination. Please send the current requirements from your importer or local authority when asking for a quotation.
