Please look at the short video and commentary below which outlines the ordering protocols and packaging
Important Notes
Limitations
The delivery of Live Plants resulting from sales on this web site is currently NOT permitted in Western Australia or Tasmania due to government plant movement restrictions.
Plant sales are also NOT available outside of Australia.
Merchandise, such as tree guards can of course be dispatched anywhere.
Basic Ordering Guidelines
ERA – Online provides seedlings in 40 cell Hiko trays where each of the 40 cells of 93cc is equivalent to what is commonly referred to as tubestock.
There is a basic ordering requirement of 5 plants per species with a minimum total of 40 plants.
In order to optimise the packaging, freight and/or postage cost, it is strongly recommended that total orders be in multiples of 40.
Availability
Our range of plants will vary throughout the year to reflect seasonal shortages and supply and delivery trends. The range is being added to regularly so bookmark this site and check for updates from time to time.
Dispatch
Orders will be sent to you via Australia Post. Most customers use the standard parcel delivery service which usually takes 3 days to arrive which means that all orders will be dispatched on the Monday immediately following the week in which your order is received.
Plant Care.
Every care is taken to ensure that your seedlings arrive in the best condition possible. The seedlings will be packaged in custom designed cartons and strapped to minimise potential damage and disruption during transit. These internal straps will need to be removed before removing the trays from the cartons (see video)
Please be sure to loosen the seedlings from beneath by using your fingers or a suitable dowell. Pulling them out by the top growth may possibly cause damage to the plant.
Bulk Discounts
ERA is a large scale producer. If you have a requirement for larger numbers of seedlings then generous bulk discounts will apply. This will also apply to wholesale operators, forward orders and contact propagation enquiries.
Please contact ERA Nurseries on our On-Line Number 0417 202 096 for a quote and competitive delivery charge estimate to anywhere in Victoria, NSW, South Australia or Queensland.
ERA Nurseries Plant Hygiene Policy
New procedures are now in place to minimise the spread of myrtle rust.
1. ERA Nurseries will not accept returned plant material under any circumstances once it has left the property.
2. Visitors to the Nursery must report to the office and are not permitted to enter the plant holding areas without authority.
3. Live Plant Material, seedlings etc ordered via the ERA on-line shop will be routinely treated with an approved fungicide (namely ‘Kocide’ – copper hydroxide) prior to being dispatched to any destination both within Victoria and interstate
4. ERA Nurseries is a grower and wholesaler and as such has no need to regularly purchase live plant material from elsewhere. In the event that plant material is purchased it will be sprayed with an approved fungicide upon arrival.
5. Forestry seedlings will be sprayed with an approved fungicide prior to dispatch.
