Key Features

- Most orders are despatched unbagged but if you require our bagging service we can accommodate that

- We have co-extruded bags (white on the outside to reflect sun and black on the inside to retain moisture around the roots) normally used by foresters OR

- We have very heavy duty black bags normally used by farmers and landowners

- Both options reduce the quantity of plants we can get onto a pallet (which costs us, not you) and incur considerable labour cost so there is a small charge for this service

- Please add the quantity of plants you are buying ie this price is per plant being purchased.  If you do not want all plants to be bagged, please ring the office to give us further details

Please contact us if you would prefer to order on the phone or have any questions.

 

 

Full Product Description

As a trade nursery, we normally despatch stock unbagged (packed horizontally on pallets) but we can offer two bagging options.  In both cases, there is a big additional labour cost to us in putting stock into bags, and then the air in the bags takes up a considerable amount of space on the pallet which means that we get many fewer plants onto a pallet compared with unbagged stock eg for 1+0 seedlings instead of approx. 10,000 plants per pallet, we'd only get approx. 5,000 plants per pallet if they are bagged.   Given that we pay the delivery cost on most orders, supplying stock in bags is a significant extra cost for us for some customers.  We therefore show the pricing per plant for unbagged and bagged separately on our website.

We have two bagging service options.  Very heavy duty black bags (normally used by farmers, landowners, landscapers etc) and co-extruded bags which are white on the outside (to reflect sunlight) and black inside (to retain moisture on the roots) normally used by foresters.  Please order the one that is most appropriate for you.  The pricing for this service is calculated on a price per plant basis and this covers our labour cost and the extra pallet delivery cost of bagged stock.

Delivery Information

Free Delivery

For deliveries of orders over £300 + VAT, (which is our minimum order value)  we have free delivery to all mainland areas nationwide. If you are in the Scottish Highlands or any of the Islands, please email us or call us and we will quote you a delivery charge which we will subsidise.

All orders are despatched on pallets and will be delivered to the kerbside.   We will email you to tell you when your order has been despatched and that email will contain a link so that you can track your delivery. 

You can request a specific delivery date when you place your order and we will do our very best to accommodate that date but cannot be held responsible if we do not meet it.

As a trade nursery, we normally despatch stock unbagged (packed horizontally on pallets) but we can offer two bagging options. 

Bagging Options

We have two options for despatching plants in bags (you do not need to have them bagged but it is advisable if there is any delay in planting and where you have large quantities, delay in planting some is inevitable).

- Very heavy duty black bags - normally used by farmers, landowners, landscapers etc

- Co-extruded bags which are white on the outside, to reflect sunlight, and black inside, to retain moisture on the roots -  normally used by foresters.

In both cases, there is a considerable labour cost to us in putting stock into bags, and then the air in the bags takes up a considerable amount of space on the pallet which means that we get many fewer plants onto a pallet compared with unbagged stock eg for 1+0 seedlings instead of approx. 10,000 plants per pallet of unbagged stock, we'd only get approx. 5,000 plants per pallet if they are bagged.  There's also a significant labour cost in putting plants into bags compared with loose packing on a pallet (which is the normal method for nursery to nursery sales).  Given that we pay the delivery cost on most orders, supplying stock in bags is a significant extra cost for us for some customers and hence we make a modest charge.

You can specifically request black or white bags on the website after you add plants to your shopping basket. Here is a link to the page Bagging Service for bare root plants for farms and forestry – rjtreesandhedging. Please order the same quantity as the number of plants you are buying - the pricing for bagging is per plant rather than per bag.
