    shipping is per order, not per tree.
    For the vast majority of orders (six trees or less, and not requiring a courier) this will be:
    • $27 to Sydney
    • $37 to regional NSW and all ACT
    • $37 to metro Queensland and metro Victoria
    • $40 to regional Victoria
    • $47 - $65 to regional Queensland
  • grafted onto rootstock,
  • will vary tree-to-tree, but typically from 40 to 60 cm from tip of tree to end of roots),
  • delivered bare-rooted and dormant (no leaves)

Larger orders of (often) taller trees sent via courier can be arranged — please enquire with your requirements.

IMPORTANT:
We deliver to the ACT, NSW, Queensland and Victoria, but not within the Pest Free Area (PFA) of NSW and Victoria owing to quarantine restrictions.
We also do not deliver to Northern Territory, South Australia, Tasmania or Western Australia owing to quarantine restrictions.

These are representative of what your trees will look like (and yes, the 'Li' tag does have a larger font than the others!).

Shown here are a Li (right, about 35 cm from tip to root ends), a Silverhill (left, about 50 cm from tip to root ends) and a Shanxi-Li (middle, about 60 cm from tip to root ends).

This does not mean that all Lis are the smallest — any cultivar could be any length within this range.

Don’t be put off by their pathetic appearance here! Once they come out of dormancy they can really get growing — as shown here.
