FAQ

Yes some are slow, but most of them are strong growers, and some are fast by any standards. so don’t be under the illusion that natives take forever to make a show. BUT, plant a native and you could be responsible for a living thing that will last for a thousand years. Imagine that!

Yes they do. There are several big tree nurseries like us which supply natives. Our replant experience is overwhelmingly successful,takanaguarantee to supply you beautiful trees as ordered, in peak condition and to your satisfaction, every time.

We dig them out of our beautiful soft peat soil with our Terrasaws (like a chain saw), with big 1m square at top rootballs, about 800mm deep in a wedge, lift them with our machinery then wrap them in hessian or shrink wrap, and load them on to a Hiab or other transport. On arrival the hiab, or your own equipment lifts them to be placed directly into the hole, with the wrap holding the root ball together while the tree settles into its new home. We have a very high success rate, with a relatively low cost system.

Our trees are at wholesale prices for delivery in quantity, so we don't accept delivery orders for first time buyers of less than $750. Once you have placed an order with us, there are no minimum order values.

Shipping rates are automatically calculated based on the number and size of plants you purchase and the location you are shipping to, so shipping rates can vary.
