I ship to the UK and Canada

sddarkman619 · 07-15-2020, 02:01 PM

I will ship to the UK and other countries who use the UK standard.
I can also ship to Canada as well.

HOWEVER there are phytosanitary requirements that need to be done for those countries and then there are other things listed below.

My suggestion is to order a few plants to make it worth your while.
You CANNOT order directly from my website for shipping to the UK, you have to order from ME. as I have to set up all the fee's and such for shipping to you. This will not happen when ordering form the website.

Setting all this up takes up my time and is at least 1/2 days work for teh set up of soil less medium and the inspection from the inspector who comes to my nursery just for your order.

The phyto certificate is 120$ the setup for shipping is 50$.
Then there is the cost of the plants and shipping.
Shipping for around 6-7 plants is around 90$ express(3-5 days APPROX), but then there's customs you also have to deal with.(time and duties).

Be aware in this time of COVID-19 it may take a few days longer.
Once the package leaves my hands, it is out of my control and you will have to watch the tracking to see where it is enroute.

Hope that helps everyone in Canada and the UK.

Larry

That's good to know, thank you very much for the heads up. I am taking it this is a recent change for your business? I am going to have to start making up my list

Yes, I've had so many requests to ship to UK and Canada I asked my inspector what I ned to do and he told me.
The plants have to be treated for Thrips and Whitefly as well as having a cert for Snail Free. Also have to be packed either bareroot or in a soilless mix such as Coco Coir.
It's a bit of a task for an order but if you can't get it anywhere else I do it.
I charge 50$ for my time with shipping setup and inspection because it takes at least a half day for all the stuff to happen. Well that is after all the paper work is done.
But yes I decided I'd try to help others in the world get some different kinds of bananas.

Sounds very reasonable and it's a great service!! Thank you, I definitely plan to take advantage next year when things, hopefully, calm down a bit.

well i decided to order some banana plants and i have been pleased with the result
i am in toronto, canada
the order came in two boxes and one was held by the canadian food inspection agency for inspection causing it to take a week longer to arrive
the plants still arrived in decent condition and i believe they will be just fine
the 4 plants on the right in this first pic arrived in the first box along with a red mulberry
the remaining plants got here this morning...they are in the shade
the first 4 to arrive are in part sun (not where they were for the picture)
the first wave of plants i waited a few days before potting them up to the 1 gallon
the plants which arrived this morning.. i potted up this evening

Thank You Larry!

sddarkman619 · 08-27-2020, 08:35 PM

Glad to see they made it in fairly good condition.
thank you!

Those are some really good looking plants. I am impressed the late ones arrived in such fine condition considering. Obviously an A1 seller.
