π Shipping Cut-Off for Christmas 2025 π±
If youβd like your order to arrive before Christmas 2025, please note:
- β° Order cut-off: Place your order by 8:00am on Monday 15 December 2025 (AEDT).
- π¦ Our commitment: We commit to shipping all orders placed before the cut-off in line with Australia Postβs Christmas sending dates.
- π Why this date? This earlier cut-off lets us send orders well before the busy (and hot) Christmas period, so theyβre less likely to get delayed in transit.
- βΉοΈ About AusPost dates: Australia Postβs Christmas cut-off dates are generally based on metro-to-metro deliveries. For full details (including regional timeframes), please see the Australia Post Christmas sending dates.
π± Orders Placed After the Cut-Off
- Orders placed after 8:00am on 15 December 2025 may still be shipped before Christmas if time allows, but we canβt guarantee pre-Christmas delivery.
- If you really want your order to arrive this year, please order before the cut-off.
- πͺ΄ Plant orders placed after the cut-off that arenβt sent before our break will be held and shipped from Monday 12 January 2026, in the order they were received.
- π¦ Non-plant orders (pots, substrates, books, accessories, etc.) may still be shipped during our break on a limited schedule (see below), and may take longer than usual to dispatch.
π Our End of Year Break: 18 December 2025 β 11 January 2026 π
Weβre taking a break to rest, reset, and get ready for a big 2026.
- ποΈ Break period: Thursday 18 December 2025 β Sunday 11 January 2026
- π Full operations resume: Monday 12 January 2026
During this time:
- π Online store open: You can still browse and place orders as normal.
- π¦ Limited shipping (non-plants only):
- Weβll do limited dispatch runs once or twice a week for non-plant orders only (pots, books, substrates, accessories, etc.).
- No plant orders will be shipped during the break to avoid plants sitting in hot depots or being delayed in transit.
- π‘ Weβre moving house (for the plants): Weβll also be relocating to a new premises during this period, so thanks in advance for your patience with any small delays while we juggle boxes, benches and begonias.
π’ Staying Connected and Updated
