Shipping, postage and Quarantine
Some states like NT, WA and Tas (and some countries) will not allow certain seeds, bulbs and plant material due to Quarantine laws. Some states (and countries) may require a Quarantine fee for seed inspection, if so this fee will be passed on to the customer. Rare Green Seeds will check Australian State restrictions for products and mark them accordingly (for example “Not for sale to Western Australia”), but cannot be held accountable. It’s the responsibility of the customer to make sure they can bring the seeds in legally. Rare Green Seeds are not responsible for missing seeds that have been seized by Quarantine. If unsure, please message Rare Green Seeds using the Contact form.
Delivery times
For most interstate orders please allow 3 to 5 business days. For orders to NT, Tas or WA orders may take around 7 to 10 business days due to Quarantine inspection. Please allow about 2 weeks for international orders. Most orders will be shipped out within 48 hours of being placed. Seeds can be picked up locally from Nhill, sent via regular post from Victoria, or sent by Australia Post with tracking.
