    • $27 to Sydney
    • $37 to regional NSW, ACT and metro Victoria
    • $40 to regional Victoria

Larger orders of mostly hip-height trees sent via courier can be arranged — please enquire with your requirements.

IMPORTANT:
We deliver to the ACT, NSW 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, Queensland, South Australia, Tasmania or Western Australia owing to quarantine restrictions.

Delivered Bare-Rooted and Dormant

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.
