I have ordered over $400 worth of plants from Daleys from the available now list-I thought I'd do a big order as it brings the post/quarantine price down per plant. From what I've read, do you sometimes miss out on stock even if it was available when you ordered it? That would put the price per plant way back up again. Hopefully I've got it wrong!<br />Am a bit anxious to see what I'll actually get next month now!kathnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28640064.post-78454023004941937432008-06-16T02:11:00.000+10:002008-06-16T02:11:00.000+10:00Hi, I'm so glad to read your blog about the avid...Hi,<BR/> I'm so glad to read your blog about the avid interest and success of Tropical Fruits and Research Park and the overwhelming feedbak of your blog readers there at WA. I'm a chemist here in the Philippines. I studied for my 2nd masteral degree at Victoria Uni in Melbourne. My work here involves Flower Induction of tropical fruits like mango, rambutan and durian. Flower induction technique made the PH a major exporter of these fruits. As I have tested other fruits for flower induction, I'm sure this could be a promising undertaking there at your orchards. If you're interested in increasing the quantity and quality of your harvests, you may contact me at my mobile +639214688050 or email me at ricardo.capistrano@live.vu.edu.au.<BR/> Thanks and have a fresh fruity days ahead.<BR/>RicBagwishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01722246111056367373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28640064.post-34248559568412537432008-02-20T18:29:00.000+11:002008-02-20T18:29:00.000+11:00Anonymous:We are happy to place plants aside for o...Anonymous:<BR/><BR/>We are happy to place plants aside for our W.A customers.<BR/><BR/>How it works is you place an order with us with the stock that we have available. In the time that your order is waiting to be sent to W.A you can email us with any plants you would like added to this order as they become available. Or of course you can just place the order online and we will amalgimate it for you.<BR/><BR/>We are unable to sell plants that do not meet our quality requirements.<BR/><BR/>Many of our W.A customers who have placed orders with us find this is the best way to do it.<BR/><BR/>Rather then a reservation system what we have is a notification system.

From what I have seen so far there is not a great deal available, especially in regional areas such as where I am (Newdegate). This means that freight is always an issue anyway.<BR/> I checked out your pricing on the website & I definitely think this is something I may take advantage of in the future. I would find this a good service for the following reasons:<BR/> a.. I have been using Daleys stock for as long as I have been a Horticulturist & I have always found the stock to be excellent quality & the right varieties are available.<BR/> b.. Your website is very well set out & provides excellent info on the varieties & availability.<BR/> c.. The checkout system is excellent & is very helpful with the itemised freight/quarantine costings & also the "maximise your freight" calculation.<BR/>My only concern is the difference in climatic conditions between here & where your plants are actually propagated. Do you think the difference in the humidity will lead to increased transplant shock?<BR/><BR/>Regards,Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
