Buying Bamboo Plants

Using the Internet is the best way to start looking for bamboo plant wholesalers and information on growers and species. Just visit your favourite search engine (we prefer to use Google) and type in exactly what you want to search for in the search box e.g. “buy screening Bamboo plants”.

The Google search will return a lot of websites in the search results for you to choose from. We have noted that people who conduct their own research first on various Bamboo websites are less inclined to haggle over prices when making enquiries at our wholesale nursery as they have been able to make their own price comparisons and are satisfied that we offer great value for our bamboo plants.

We advise visitors that they should look for information and comments made about nurseries, bamboo plants and customer service. Checking references and recommendations is good practice to ensure you are dealing with a reputable bamboo supplier. This will help to make sure you are buying plants from a reliable bamboo nursery as some buyers have had bad experiences with making an online bamboo purchase.

Once you are happy that you have found a reputable grower or wholesale bamboo nursery, you can request a quote for the plants you are interested in. If you are submitting a quote request, it will be necessary to specify the bamboo species, container size and your site address so that freight costs can be accurately calculated and correct pricing provided for delivery of the bamboo plants to your site. Bamboo wholesale nurseries will have trucking arrangements in place to make deliveries several times per week and you could expect most deliveries within days of your order. To give an example, Bamboos Wholesale Nursery is usually able to deliver bamboo plants overnight to Brisbane at reasonable freight cost. Freight costs can be further reduced if you are able to collect the bamboo plants from the transport depot.

Average freight costs for a full pallet of bamboo plants in 200mm pots (about 75 plants) is just over $80 when collection is made at the trucking company terminal or about $130 delivered to your site. This is the average pricing from the Bamboos Wholesale Nursery to Brisbane. Prices for delivery to Sydney, Melbourne and export overseas will be more expensive, but still great value.

It is common practice for a wholesale bamboo nursery to set minimum quantities for ordering bamboo plants due freight costs making orders for small numbers of plants unviable.

Wholesale bamboo nurseries will use only specialized freight companies and plants will be treated with wetting agents and given a thorough watering before loading onto transport so you can be assured of your quality bamboo plants arriving safely at your door.
