FOR TRIFFID PARK
ALL PRICES ARE LISTED IN AUSTRALIAN DOLLARS.
Convert Australian dollars into your countries currency.
If you send us an email or order, please allow us about
one week to answer you before you resend it. Donna has to answer all the
emails and pick out and pack all the orders, so she cannot answer all the emails
immediately she receives them. Thank-you.
PLANTS
All plants are sent loose rooted. We take all plants from their pots and shake off the excess peat moss that they are growing in. All overseas orders must have the roots washed clean of peat moss in water. For Australian orders we then wrap the roots in moist sphagnum moss (except Sarracenias which will last 4 weeks bare rooted). Overseas we use moist vermiculite or rock wool. The plants are then wrapped in plastic bags to keep the roots moist, with their name tags tied to each bag. All bags are then placed in a cardboard box and posted to you by Australia Post.
SUBSTITUTES:
Please list substitutes, or substitutes will be given at our discretion to fill
orders.
REFUNDS:
All orders are hand picked with the best quality plants that we have available
at the time of processing each order.
Due to Australia’s strict quarantine laws from state to state, and importing
from overseas, we cannot accept back any plants once posted to you. You must
accept our decision of quality of plants sent to you.
We can also not be held responsible for loss of plants due to postage delays.
SHIPMENT TIME:
AUSTRALIA - we post using Australia Post, so most
parcels should be delivered within a few days of being posted. Once we receive payment, we usually post orders off to our customers
within the next few working days, depending on the day of the week that we
receive the order.
OVERSEAS - if your country requires a phytosanitary
certificate, we have to wait until we have four overseas orders to get an
inspecting officer to come to our nursery. Waiting time is approximately
1-3 weeks from ordering.
Once posted, you should receive the plants within approximately 5 working days
(as long as they do not get stopped in customs). We use Express Courier
International to deliver your parcels.

Most countries will require a phytosanitary certificate for importing tissue
cultures. Please see PHYTOSANITARY CERTIFICATE below.
CITES CERTIFICATE:
Compulsory government certificate.
Cost is included in phytosanitary certificate cost.
Triffid Park is an approved artificial propagation nursery and can
legally export all CITES 1 and EPBC Act listed species as listed:
CITES Appendix 1
Sarracenia oreophila
Sarracenia rubra ssp. alabamensis
Sarracenia rubra ssp. jonesii
Nepenthes rajah
Nepenthes khasiana
EPBC
Drosera shizandra
Drosera prolifera
PHYTOSANITARY
CERTIFICATE:
All countries require this compulsory government
certificate to accompany the order of plants declaring that the plants were
inspected by an Australian quarantine officer and found free of pests and
diseases.
We organise a quarantine officer to come to our
nursery and inspect your order of plants, and sign the phytosanitary
certificate.
We can not and will not send parcels without a phytosanitary certificate, as it is against the law.
Please visit our
Phytosanitary certificate
page to find out your countries requirements.
PHYTOSANITARY CERTIFICATE COST (includes CITES
certificates): as of 30th June 2011, the
Australian government took away a 40% rebate they were offering on phytosanitary
costs, therefore costs have risen. The government is still working on
costs, so these could still rise or drop in the future.
MOST COUNTRIES - $Aus 160
EUROPEAN UNION COUNTRIES - $Aus 175 (covers cost of peat moss testing for
PCN as required by EU governments).
U.S.A. - $Aus 190
(covers cost of EDN and Cites validation, and peat
moss testing for PCN as required by US government).
TAIWAN and CHINA - $Aus 200 (covers cost of electronically lodged phytosanitary certificate EXDOC as required by Taiwan/Chinese governments).
We have to have four
overseas orders before we can book a phytosanitary certificate inspection. This way we can split the travel cost and hourly
inspection time cost between the four customers and keep the price down for you
as much as possible. Therefore we have to hold orders, until we accumulate
four orders. You should usually get your order within about 1 month of
ordering.
We cannot process any more than 4 orders at a time to make it any cheaper,
because all plants need to be loose rooted and washed for the inspecting officer
to see, and then we need to pack them on the same day so that they will not dry
out. So we do not have time to do any more than 4 orders in a day.
If you want your order immediately, and do not want to wait until we have
accumulated four orders, the cost will be much higher, as you will need to pay
all travel costs and inspection time.

You might like to think about importing with a friend, or contact your
local carnivorous plant society to see if someone will share the cost of
importing with you. Visit our
Carnivorous Plant Society page to find the society in your country.
DISCOUNTS:
The prices listed on our web site (and in our catalogue)
are for one plant or 1000 plants (unless otherwise stated).
These are the prices that we must sell the plants for to cover our costs, when
taking into consideration water, fertiliser, pots, peat moss, electricity, gas,
land rates, staff wages etc. etc..
We do not give further discounts to anyone - these are the prices that all our
customers worldwide pay.
Please Do Not ask for a discount as refusal often
offends.
Thank you.
