Australian Seed Offer [UK]

Post by Chad »

Australian Seed sell an unrivalled range of Australian native seed.

But the Phytosanitary Certificate is Au$ 199 per order. That's about £106.

So to dilute that cost I'm putting together a joint order from everyone I know who might want some Australian seed. The PhtoSan cost will be divided out in ratio to the number of packets ordered.

The more of us who order, the cheaper the certificate appears to be!

Let me know what packets you want before the end of January, and I'll put in one order, and then divide it up for UK distribution.

PM me with your requirements and postal address. I'll defer taking money until the seed is with me, so you won't pay for things they can't supply.

Allow a bit of leeway in what you think it will cost in case there are currency fluctuations.

Great idea, Chad! I'll have a look but a casual glance shows a few interesting acacias.

Maya, who I don't think is on here(?), would probably be up for this as she grows a lot of Australasian stuff from seed.

Maya is on GOTE, and I've posted this on there as well.

And e-mailed any Cornish nursery folk that I'm in touch with.

I'll ask around, too - I know a few folks who don't 'do' the forum thing.

Just over two weeks since the order was submitted they have dispatched it.

I have no idea how long it will take to get here, nor what import tax will be levied on it.

I'll update as we know more.
