Bamboos - We propagated
small plants for mail order and also dig and divide mature clumps in the spring
& early summer. These supply large propagules that will establish faster than
small. They are usually sold as single culm divisions and are more expensive,
cost more to transport and need to be picked up or shipped soon after digging so
some planning is necessary. However the advantage is they do establish much
faster. As the Chinese saying goes, "a bamboo that one man can carry will take
10 years to mature and a bamboo that 10 men can carry will take 1 year to
establish". Large field grown divisions are available between August & early
December. Plantation quantities are available.
Gingers and Aquatics - These are generally
best purchased during winter dormancy or at the beginning of spring
which here corresponds to the period August to November and at the
latest by the end of the year.
International orders are possible but if you need a Phyto
Sanitary Certificate there is a $400 minimum charge per consignment.
Regarding the United States please note that - due
to a Notice of Quarantine, 7 CFR § 319.34, importation into the United States of any
variety of bamboo seed, bamboo plants or bamboo cuttings capable of propagation including
all genera & species of Bambusea, is prohibited unless in accordance with the law
& relevant regulations.
Prices -
Catalogue prices are quoted in
Australian Dollars and are for small plants suitable for mail order & easy transport.
We also supply freshly dug divisions from early spring to about Xmas, price on
application. Some plants listed below will be propagated to order (PTO) only, ie. either
dug directly from the field or propagated in pots to the specified quantity. Plants are
sometimes priced per culm. To avoid disappointments please seek confirmation by phone or email of costs & availability before sending
an order or visiting the nursery. Nursery visits by appointment only and preferably on
Sundays. Discounts apply to large orders.
