Plants arrived promptly, safely and in a very healthy state - they were also quite large (bigger than what we expected). They have been planted in our garden and are looking good thus far...... they will look terrific when they start to hedge up!!

Beautiful plants, great value.

Hi Plant Hub, thank you so much for my beautiful grasses. They were a great size and were lovely, healthy specimens. I planted them in my native garden, and I can’t wait to see them grow. The website was easy to use. I used the ‘click and collect’ option and picked up the plants the following day. Thank you, Plant Hub.

Beautiful calm-o-mile plants arrived promptly to regional Victoria in excellent condition. Lovely sized tube plants! Planted right away and I think they've settled in beautifully for a few weeks now and look terrific. (I live 2nd line coastal so conditions can be harsh). SO looking foward to seeing them grow into ground cover. Many thanks!

Frequently Asked Questions

When you shop with The Plant Hub, you will receive free delivery with every full box of plants.

A full box contains 4 items, examples of these are; 4 X Tube 10 Packs, 4 X Lawn Plug trays, or a combination of Tube 10 Packs and Lawn Plugs totalling 4 items.

We ship to NSW,ACT,Victoria, and Queensland, as quarantine is an important issue with the movement of plants across state borders. Due to quarantine restrictions, we cannot ship plants outside of Australia.

This is an excellent question. Live plants require express freight, unlike other products, which may take a week or so to be delivered using non-express freight services. The Plant Hub uses couriers and Australia Post to ship orders. When your plants are dispatched, we will send you an email to let you know how they have been shipped, and you will also receive a ‘Track and Trace’ label number and a link to the relevant delivery website to track the progress of your delivery.

As we deliver 'live plants', we naturally want to ensure they arrive in the best possible condition. We only dispatch orders on Monday of each week (except public holidays) to ensure orders arrive that same week. The cut-off time for orders is 6 pm Sunday. Orders placed after this time will, in most cases, be shipped the following week.

Plants normally arrive during business hours within 2 to 3 days for metropolitan areas. In regional areas, it may take an extra day or so to arrive. If you have ordered plants and have been notified that your order has been dispatched, but has not arrived by Thursday afternoon, don't hesitate to contact our office to track down your order for you.

No, if you would like your order to go to a PO Box, we send your order to Australia Post; however, we ask that you pick up your plants the day they arrive at the Post Office, so you receive your plants in the best condition possible.

The Plant Hub is committed to supplying quality plants and products. However, if you are dissatisfied, return your purchase and we will either replace the plants or refund your money, no questions asked.
