TESTIMONIALS - OUR FRUIT LOVING CUSTOMERS

I Like dealing with your business , have great range so i can get all my plants in one place Tim Jensen, VETERAN QLD (6th Jun 2008)

Our Plants need 2 weeks in our shade house before planting to acclimatising them. They are getting a bit of a lift off due to the rain and looking good The condition that they arrived in was better then expected. Thank`s for keeping contact ( by emails) Regards Cameron Brown, CHILDERS QLD (5th Jun 2008)

I was very impressed with the size and health of your plants. They arrived beautifully packed and had no set backs when planted out after following your instructions. I plan to buy all my fruit & nut trees from you in the future and have spread the word about your service to our local garden group. Cheers Gigi Gigi Robertson, MITCHELL QLD (2nd Jun 2008)

All good and plants happy and growing well. Thank you. Celia Genn, BEERWAH QLD (2nd Jun 2008)

Good quality plants and informative tags and speedy delivery. Debra Butt, MARSDEN QLD (1st Jun 2008)

I was very pleased with the quality of the stock. I have had mixed results with mail order, but the figs in particular were fantastic. Lesley Taylor, Jan Juc VIC (1st Jun 2008)

I have ordered plants from a number of other nurseries, and have frequently been disappointed with either the delays experienced or the quality of the plants. However, I am delighted with the prompt service from Daleys and found both the web site and the plant information particularly helpful. To this I must add that the vigour and health of the plants delivered has been outstanding. Many thanks, Craig Linn, FAULCONBRIDGE NSW (1st Jun 2008)

All I have to add is that our area in NSW has not had any rain for over 2 months and your plants are surviving well on tap water. Praying to anyone who will listen for rain. Diana Peck, MANILLA NSW (1st Jun 2008)

Very impressed with the nursery and your web site. I have already recommended your nursery to friends that have already purchased items from you. I look fwd to visiting your establishment soon. Kind regards - Pete Peter Richardson, ARATULA QLD (31st May 2008)

They arrived within a few days of placing the order and were packed just as your website described. The fruit trees are in the ground and although it is the dormant season there is new growth on the Yakon and on one of the apples and the others look happy. I look forward to a burst of activity in the spring in my new dwarf orchard! Shirley Jensen, MENTONE VIC (31st May 2008)

I was impressed by the way they were packaged - and by the clear and consice instructions on how to prepare the plants for planting out and recovery from shipping. Bee Reynolds, HARWOOD ISLAND NSW (31st May 2008)

Plants were well packed,very fast delivery. Kind Regards Happy customer David Pidgeon, TUNCURRY NSW (31st May 2008)

Our citrus trees were bent over to fit in the carton but within a week they were upright again. We have been concerned about them for the last couple of weeks because they don't have a vigorous appearance. We have put this down to our cold weather and winds. To help protect them we have erected hessian enclosures around them in the last few days so right now it's a bit early to know whether this will have a beneficial effect. We will let you know the result. Clem & Doris Wilson, MOUNT WAVERLEY VIC (31st May 2008)

I have always found the plants from Daleys to be healthy and well cared for. It is obvious to me that you are "plant people" and not just retailers/wholesalers. Mark Brown, ANAMBAH NSW (31st May 2008)

it was the best way to get the trees at the best price all plants were packed with care and turned up in good condition a great way to shop Darryl Green, CASINO NSW (29th May 2008)

Very suprised with both the service, email replies and then the finnal arrival of the plants. left right by the door as i had asked. Give yourself a big pat on the back. our neighbour was here when we undid the box and he was just delighted as we were. he is just trying to get his garden going, new to it all, comming from a unit with 2 small children and a lot of grass to cut. thank you once again. Beverley Baxter, BEACON HILL NSW (27th May 2008)

Plants are beautifully packed and arrived safe, sound and healthy - the internet site is well constructed and works!! I like receiving them via courier as it makes the purchase exciting - I need to buy more so I can go home and open the box Graham Bartlett, GREENBANK QLD (26th May 2008)

All plants are growing healthily, looking forward to ordering more Jan Tomlinson, CRAFERS WEST SA (24th May 2008)

After perusing Daleys website, I ordered my plants by email. I was very happy with the whole process as I was kept informed of the progress of my order and advised the date when the plants had been shipped. When the plants arrived they were beautiful healthy plants and in fantastic condition. Since planting they have not looked back! The dwarf granny smith apple has already flowered, also the mulberry has had ripe fruit. My grandchildren did the sampling. Their opinion? Very yummy!! We are all looking forward to lots of fruit next season. Pauline Rook, KINGAROY QLD (24th May 2008)

I was very delighted with the service and the quality of plants - now they are happily growing in my yard. Thanks Daleys Nursery! Ewa Wedracka, SUNNYBANK HILLS QLD (20th May 2008)

I was very impressed from placing my order, receiving confirmation and right through to delivery. The trees were a great size, extremely well packed and looked great. Not only that they arrived so fast! In complete contrast to the wonderful service I recieved from Daleys, I ordered some fruit trees from [** Daleys Took out Name **] on the same day. I received them a month later with no communication to say what was happening. Not only that the plants were a third the size and the packing was not as good. Thank you Daleys's for your professional service - wonderful! Karen Mitchell, LAKE CATHIE NSW (20th May 2008)

As always they arrived in a happy state! Annette Yates, BOONAH QLD (20th May 2008)

I was impressed with the way the plants were packed. They arrived in healthy condition and now they have been planted, all bar one are doing well. The dwarf blood orange is losing leaves and now has two bare branches. It is probably something I have done or not done as I am a new gardener. I live in Ipswich QLD. I also thought the size/age of the plants we received was good. And all had healthy root systems when we planted them out. We will definately buy more plants from your nursery in the future though. :) Clare Hourigan, SILKSTONE QLD (19th May 2008)

Service & Plants AAA+++ Will definetely order again Cheers Nicole Shean, BOOROWA NSW (19th May 2008)

My order was delivered promptly and in great condition. The trees are all doing well and i'm sure that in spring they will flower beautifully. I would like to know when a cinnamon tree becomes available. joe marafioti, RYDALMERE NSW (18th May 2008)

Staff member was very friendly and helpful in answering my questions about my purchase. Plants are doing very well. Thanks! Sandy Sandy Popovic, WINSTON HILLS NSW (18th May 2008)

The plants arrived very quickly and in excellent order, packed as per video thank you for excellent service Allan Riches, BEROWRA HEIGHTS NSW (18th May 2008)

Great service and a good price Brian Bright, TOONGABBIE NSW (18th May 2008)

Doing OK now but I bought some plants that I knew were frost sensitive to try in warm possitions so all will be revealed by the time summer gets here. Thanks for everything, Anne McAlpine, BALLIMORE NSW (18th May 2008)

Impressed with the speed of the mail and standard of packaging. The plants are healthy and doing well. I only hope they cope with the cooler weather to come. I have told my friends about Daley's and have shown them the brochure. Margaret Hilliard, GUILDFORD WEST NSW (17th May 2008)

All i have to say is the service and quality that you people supply is just not found these days and i will definately be using your plants again. Highly recommended your business to many people so hope all will stay as it is. Stephen Lodge, TOP RYDE NSW (14th May 2008)

I have given your catalogue and website to many friends and aquaintances - they are all amazed and excited by the extensive range - and my family now give a Daleys fruit tree to each other for birthdays etc - the perfect gift! Nicky crayson, HORNSBY HEIGHTS NSW (11th May 2008)

I was pleased with the SMS service on notifying me of when the plants became available and was also pleased with the smaller carton size. Veronica Gray, WARRABROOK NSW (11th May 2008)

All five varieties of blueberry plants are in good condition and have produced new growth already. We are keen to find out which ones will do best in Sydney, and how they taste. Promise to provide feedback at that time.  Edward Henner, CARLINGFORD NSW (10th May 2008)

Great service and quality stock. Have planted all out and almost all have fresh shoots already. Aaron Langham, OORALEA QLD (10th May 2008)

WA Quarantine destroyed one item from my order but Daleys reimbursed me in full, which impressed me immensely. Brigid van der Moezel, SCARBOROUGH WA (9th May 2008)

Very happy with the plants, they are all thriving now. The tamarillo, casana and amla had dropped all their leaves but they came back very quickly once out of their boxes. I was a little disappopinted that the delivery took 8 or 9 days to get to me, perhaps if they had have been sent on the monday as opposed to the wednesday then they might have taken 5 days. Overall I am very happy with the plants, Cheers, Richard Crowden, INNALOO WA (9th May 2008)

I feel a bit rude, as I had meant to fax you to let you know that the order arrived in good condition, on time and exactly as organised. The staff were helpful and friendly. Thank you all so much! Cheers  Penny McDonald, BRIDGETOWN WA (6th May 2008)

I would deal with you again. Disappointed that stock levels are a bit low on desired plants but maybe they will be available later. John Cheeseman, KYOGLE NSW (6th May 2008)

The plants showed some wear and tear - expected I suppose given the distance and quarintine. Most were in good nick - the Pomegranate lost most of its leaves, but has put on a new flush and looks OK - might get confused when it gets cold over here! Still have most of them in pots - will see how they go when I transplant in next month or so. The Dragon fruit was a bit knocked around, but that one is in the ground and has new growth already - going well. Would recommend a May/June transport date for anyone in Perth - best time for transplanting over here I guess. My plants come over when the east coast and Adelaide had that heatwave - took about 2 weeks to get here, but the plants made it in pretty good nick considering. Stephen Edwards, HOVEA WA (5th May 2008)

Quality of plants: I expected a very high standard and was not disappointed. Speed slow but sensible because of our very hot summer. Yes I have already spoken voluminously to friends about Daleys, but I will be checking out the local nursery you recommended; too expensive for freight and quarantine otherwise. My plants are singing in the rain in very good home-made compost. I will be buying more coffee trees depending on continued health of one I've just planted and be looking to purchasing berry plants suitable for our suburban Perth conditions. I will watch my plants very closely over the 'colder' Perth months of winter. Any suggestions? Thank you for introducing me to your wonderful and beautiful dwarf fruit trees. Richard Palmer, NORTH PERTH WA (5th May 2008)

Service was great and helpful, though slower than I expected. The biggest problem for me in WA was that the freight outweighed the value of what I wanted to buy so it made everything relatively expensive, despite this the plants were still good value, thanks, Steve Mckinney, COWARAMUP WA (4th May 2008)

I was particularly pleased with the healthy plants you sent me. So far the plants are fine - with the cooler weather they haven,t grown much. We are getting some rain now after a dry autumn. I'm hoping for a burst of growth in spring. The packaging of the plants was excellent. I wish I could grow some of the tropical fruits listed in your catalogue Jenifer Holmes, RED HILL SOUTH VIC (2nd May 2008)

I think you guys rock! I love your web site, love your plants. Your quality is superb, your range is fantastic, you are friendly and courteous and helpful. Everything about Daley's is great - there's only *one* thing I would change if I could, but I think that in reality it's probably impossible. I would like to be able to order just one or two plants when they come into stock, without paying the full freight cost of a whole carton. OR, failing that, I would like to be able to set aside plants at Daleys' when they come into stock so that when I have enough to fill a box they could all be sent together. What's been happening is that a plant I want becomes available but while I am waiting for others I want to become available, the first one sells out and I am back to square one with an unfilled carton, so in the end I don't order. BUT never mind, that's a small detail. I am very happy with everything else, and thanks for asking my opinion! All the best,  Cecilia Egan, BRIGHTON EAST VIC (2nd May 2008)

- Correy From Daleys says: We have a new small box which reduces freight we have been trialing since easter here is the video on the new box

Daleys is fastastic and I would reccomend them to anyone who wants a plant. The trees arrived promtly and were all very healthy. The staff were very helpful, answering my many, many boring questions. I have planted my white sapote, and it is doing a fine job of the frosts. Mum and Dad said they would all die, but i proved them wrong. And one day I will own the worlds biggest Tropical fruit farm!!! Banda Grey & Rod Coleman, HARCOURT NORTH VIC (28th Apr 2008)

Very pleased with the packaging and delivery. David Jackson, PORT KEMBLA NSW (28th Apr 2008)

The plants came quickly and healthy, i have potted them all up, they are doing well except the carambola, i think the wind has effected it , even though its in a protected spot. Michael Phillips, MODBURY HEIGHTS SA (27th Apr 2008)

The packing of the trees was well above that experienced before from other mail order suppliers. All the plants arrived in perfect condition and their treatment ensured that no transit damage took place and there was no loss of condition or moisture. Thank you so much. Kevin Long, SEAFORTH NSW (26th Apr 2008)

Excellent service and the plants were as expected - excellent Wendy Witten, CEDAR GROVE QLD (26th Apr 2008)

Just wish i had a bigger garden so i could try all of your exciting varieties. Janette Nilsen, WAMBERAL NSW (22nd Apr 2008)

I was surprised how quickly my order arrived - and also the packaging of the plants was great. Robert Blumenthal, SEVEN HILLS NSW (21st Apr 2008)

Maybe a little sheet of care instructions specific to the plant varieties could be included in the package. When to fertilize with what; best time for pruning etc etc etc. Just a thought don't know if it would be economic for you or not? Your plants are always beautifully healthy looking and seem to acclimatize well haven't had a failure yet. Margaret Pearce, MONA VALE NSW (20th Apr 2008)

Extreamly happy with the plants and most of all, your fast delivery and care of the plants........thanks Patricia van Bergen, GLADSTONE QLD (20th Apr 2008)

I have used your nursery for the second time - the only reason why I had to say no to the last question - I did not have any contact with any of your staff. I am very pleased with your service, the plants all arrived healthy and have been thriving in my backyard (the first order) for the last 3 months. You put a lot of effort into your online presence (where I go first to check for news and information) and your business is well organised. Well done !!! elke knebel, KINGSFORD NSW (19th Apr 2008)

All fruit trees arrived in perfect condition and the service was so quick we were caught unawares having only ordered 5 days prior. Congratulations!The Lemonade Tree is already full of Blooms and has only been in the ground since 19/2/08. All other trees are looking happy and healthy. Thank you to all for the quick,helpful and efficient service. Ian Soper, GLENORE GROVE QLD (19th Apr 2008)

The heatwave in Adelaide did have a bit of an impact on my apple tree but apart from that everything was fine. I do find the boxes a bit hard to get the plants out of with the pots stapled in. The courier service is great. The plants when I've received them have always been in quite advanced condition and quite robust. The range of plants is amazing and the prices you offer them at are very competivie with teh delivery service. Thanks. David Padula, STURT SA (19th Apr 2008)

The plants I want are usually not avilable and the nursery is very prompt in notifying e when they are in stock, however, ordering one plant at a time becomes a costly affair for me as the delivery cost is more than the cost of the plant. Jammuna Bond, SILVERDALE NSW (19th Apr 2008)

Excellent packaging and protection for the plants in transit. I was away when the plants arrived, got home 2 days after delivery, very hot weather, courier left items right inside the front porch, as requested, the plants were still moist and not stressed Very happy Evelyn Kawiti, GRANVILLE NSW (14th Apr 2008)

I was impressed with the quality of the plants, the price and the affordability, both of the plants and the freight. The range of your plants was amazing and I have sent many friends to your site. The information supplied with the plants about planting and growing was also very helpful. You have a wonderful business and have obviously put a lot of thought into providing a unique and wonderful expereience to your customers - congratulations Roxanne Smith, MULLAWAY NSW (13th Apr 2008)

I live in Streaky Bay South Australia and I am growing Tropical plants. I have bought 17 now, lost just 2. And they were from my own laspe in jugdement. I am very happy with all of these trees, and the service and the price per tree to is fantastic. Even better that that service is the plants come to me ready to be planted. Most people buy a tree and just plant it, then it justs sits there almost dying, for they didnt trim it back by a thrid, and or prepared for them buy the outlet.. The trees I have got were perfectly trimed, therefore, once planted within days they were showing signs of growth. They arrive in imaculent condition, considering how many are in the box and from where they come from. I now have a 1.3m paw paw with flowers ready to open. I have 3 mangoes growing about 2 inches a month. I have a choco puding fruit tree and brazilian custard apples now flourishing. The star fuit enjoys the climate and produces prolific growth everyday. My prize is my star apple, for which not many like, I dont know why, is growing into a small but magnifisant tree. It will become very large. I also have 3 pitayas and 8 guavas. I did buy a mandarine as well and in 3 months its doubled in size and half the price that you would buy it locally. And appart from all that, I want to squash in about 5 more trees. I do have a Jack fruit but its not handling the conditions to well at the moment. Thanks for the great and speedy service, and also thanks for supply us with the trees that we know know we can grow here, that most people say we cant. I find round of appluase to you all. You have me for a customer, a loyal one at that for life. Thanks again John fron SB John Filippidis, STREAKY BAY SA (13th Apr 2008)

I think that your website is wonderful. The information that came with the plants was also great. All the plants have survived, and we are novice gardeners, so it's down to your advice that came with the plants. Patricia Stevenson, KEARSLEY NSW (12th Apr 2008)

They were in good condition i enjoy the fact that you sell plants that i cannot get anywhere else. thank you for helping me wiht my edible garden Peter Grover, POORAKA SA (11th Apr 2008)

Plants suffered slightly through our recent heatwave but are recovering nicely, babaco suffered the most but has now got new shoots, had to water every day to keep root ball cool even with 80mm of mulch in tub.dwarf mulberry has fruit. All of the plants have new shoots & i am pleased with their progress. i was particularly happy with the way plants packed for transport survived journey very well. Don Pavey, OLD NOARLUNGA SA (11th Apr 2008)

My order of 4 Poinciana trees was delivered and packed very professionally. As we live in Victoria with severe drought conditions, I have repotted these trees with excellent quality potting mix and am keeping them under observation until the weather settles and will nurse them through our cold winter. When they acclimatise, they will be planted out. They are looking very healthy with vigorous growth at the moment and I am hoping they will survive our climate. Trina Perry, RESEARCH VIC (11th Apr 2008)

Difficult to get stock sometimes otherwise great quality price delivery are well above expectations lorraine ellis, STRATHPINE QLD (8th Apr 2008)

I ordered a total of 8 plants and they all arrived intact and in great condition. Speed of delivery was also quite good. The quality and condition of plants were great; and they are all thrivinng now. The bluberries and rasperies and figs all have fruit on them now. The sheet of instructions and advice that came with the plants were excellent and I followed them to the letter. Giovanni Mandarano, EAGLEMONT VIC (7th Apr 2008)

First time purchaser - very impressed and will have no hesitation in using you in the future Peter Knight, COONABARABRAN NSW (6th Apr 2008)

Plants arrived looking great, was very happy with the purchase. Have told all my friends where I got my fruit trees from, they are well impressed as well. The plants are doing great. Still looking healthy in the big pots they are all in. Hopefully they will continue to thrive. Thank you Daleys Nursery for fantastic advice, even before I purchased anything from you. You deserve a gold medal for a fantastic service that you offer. I will continue spreading the good word about your company. THANK YOU!! Jane Farmer, NORTH IPSWICH QLD (6th Apr 2008)

The plants were planted as per guide. They are struggling a little but that could be the changing conditions here. I am hopeful they will survive but only time will tell. Your staff were very helpful and even called me to clarify the order and dispatch arrangements. Well done! Daniel Kemp, BELLBOWRIE QLD (6th Apr 2008)

I was amazed how quickly the plants were delivered all were in excellent condition. It was a benefit being advised by you if the choices were suitable for my area. I will definitely being ordering more plants from you. Brian Bielby, ACACIA RIDGE QLD (1st Apr 2008)

Great i really love the convenience thanks Sandra Sheey, TIARO QLD (1st Apr 2008)

We were not sure how the plants would adapt to Sydney's "not- quite- tropical-but might- be-soon-due-to-climate-change" climate! However, with some help from some water tubes to get them through the hottest weather, all seem to be doing well. The most difficult part will be keeping up a good supply of compost and mulch to them all. As we have broken all local tradition and planted the fruit trees in the FRONT garden, and the blueberries as a hedge (no front fence), we've been happy to hear many positive comments from people walking by, and lots of interest. I'm sure this will increase as the trees start to come into fruit, and we can give away tastes of what will probably the first experience that many of our neighbours will have had of organically grown fruit. Hoping that this will begin a change in the way that city people use the land in their front gardens- for growing some delicious food. Thanks again for the lovely healthy plants- we pass your name on to anyone who shows interest in doing the same. Kind regards Robyn MacDonald, HUNTERS HILL NSW (31st Mar 2008)  

I was really impressed, plants arrived promptly and in great condition- unfortunately i have terrible trouble with possums so have had a few fatalities. Any hints re possums gratefully appreciated! kaye kendall, AUCHENFLOWER QLD (30th Mar 2008) 

Great service that you are providing and I intend to be ordering again soon. Keep up the great work on providing a dependable source of interesting and useful plants. Well done. James Slaughter, SOMERTON VIC (30th Mar 2008)

Very happy with order. About to place next order. One of the areas of your site that I like the best is the search that you can do with plant fruiting tmes. I can never seem to find it though. It would be great if a link to this could be added to your standard search option. Simon Zwart, HIGHGATE HILL QLD (24th Mar 2008)

"Editors Note: Here is the page Simon was speaking about: Choosing Fruit Tree, Fruiting Times etc.."

Many thanks for very good service. This is the first time that I have purchased plants 'on-line' and I have been most impressed with the speed of service, the useful information provided and the quality fruit trees that arrived. You provide high quality retail and horticulture services. My plants arrived safely in a short space of time. Delivery instructions were followed acurately. I look forward to reading your newsletter and doing business with you in the future. Regards Jeanette Williamson, PASCOE VALE VIC (23rd Mar 2008)

This is the place where I can buy rare fruiting plants, and get information of plants I die for, but can't get them in my climate. Fabiola Saxon, COLLAROY PLATEAU NSW (23rd Mar 2008)

I have been really pleased with the fruit treees I purchased from you. You came recommended by word and mouth from friends who already use your service. I will always purchase goods from you now. regards Julie Crawford, CLIFTON QLD (22nd Mar 2008)

Thanks you have given me the confidence to try plants that are very marginal for my climate. With frosts and occasional -5 your newsletters and site have been very helpful. Vicki Robinson, HORNSBY NSW (17th Mar 2008)

I was only thinking the other day that I will have to send you a line to thank you for the service that you have set up to help people like me. I have lived here for 13 years and have wanted to set up a mini orchard but was hesitant because of the limited knowledge of the plants and confidents of the plants survival. You have made it so easy with both the internet site and the catalogue to understand what plants would best suit this area and how they will grow and to me more importantly what they will taste like, as I wanted to buy not the norm in fruit. The ordering was easy, asking questions both by telephone and email was pleasant and informative and the speed of the plants just fantastic. You give honest and realistic answers you are not out to sell off your plants but to make sure, with all your information, that they are going off to a good home to be loved and enjoyed for ever. I only had to wait a couple of days for my bounty. All the plants arrived in good health due to the way you package them. I loved the information that you give with the delivery to ensure the survival of the plants. All the plants that I have order thus far (I have since order another lot of plants) are happy and healthy by following your simple instructions. I look forward to the bounty of fruit that I will be able to supply to my family. It is all to the endless energy of love in what you are doing and beleive in, that people like me are going to be able to enjoy the fruits of your labour. Thanks again one very happy customer who has recommended to you to so many and will be ordering from you again soon - great presents for my friends and families. Diane Diane Petrovic, SPRINGFIELD  QLD (17th Mar 2008)

I had always visited nurseries previously whenever I wanted to purchase plants because then, I could see the quality of what I am paying money for. Admittedly, I was naturally apprehensive ordering from Daleys way back in Sept 2005. The Pak Lans, passionfruit, wax jambus, macadamia, eureka lemon and blood orange arrived by truck in immaculately healthy and vibrant condition inside a new carton box. I was very impressed. Kath's apparent concerns to ensure that I would not be disappointed has resulted in my subsequent order in January 2008 for mulberries, longan, and ambarella. These trees arrived unusually fast and as I expected and confidently so, they looked so healthy and green. I have recommended Daleys to every friend and relative who have visited us here in Blacktown and complimented on how healthy my fruit trees look. Frankly, if I have more room in my small garden, I would be ordering more fruit trees from you. Thanks once again for your excellent service but more importantly, on the excellent quality of your plants. Best regards, Henry Charles Ng JP, BLACKTOWN NSW (16th Mar 2008)

The service was quick and the plants where healty, very good for a mail order service and I liked the detailed info on the plants.One thing I missed is the info of what kind of position the plants like. Thats all and many thanks. Elizabeth Elizabeth Brown, REGENTS PARK QLD (15th Mar 2008)

Service professional & helpful, plants arrived in pristine condition and beautifully packaged, clear instructions included. Will be ordering more very soon. Regards,  Neville Davey, DRUMMOYNE NSW (14th Mar 2008)

Interesting range of plants, and despite the 'exotic' nature of some of them, quite reasonably priced. The facility to see what people in your region have ordered and the forum page encourages you to attempt to grow some things that you wouldn't normally try - e.g. sub-tropical species in Canberra. With the right microclimate, anything's possible! Quentin Hart, WESTON ACT (10th Mar 2008)

The speed and ease of service was great - along with the price. We ordered some fruit trees and dwarfing bags to experiment and can't wait until they start bearing fruit. Rachel Dubsky, MAROUBRA BEACH NSW (10th Mar 2008)

We have been revegetating erosion areas on our property and we are very pleased with the results. We thank you for your prompt service and quality plants. Leita Battersby, DINMORE QLD (9th Mar 2008)

Wonderful comprehensive instructions and well cared for healthy plants. Thankyou! Andrew Haneman, BRONTE NSW (9th Mar 2008)

I just love your web site for helpful information about your fruit trees etc. Annette Yates, BOONAH QLD (9th Mar 2008)

Plants arrived in excellent condition and are doing well despite the Queensland climate's attempts to drown them. Merran Wilson, MUTDAPILLY QLD (8th Mar 2008)

i was very happy with my puchases!!! the only problem was that some of the tips on the plants were bent. i LOVE the forum as i am a beginner an i need good advice. i got my sisters boyfriend into it. one more problem some times you buy a plant that is not suitable to your climate so help in that department would be good. i loved your range of plants some that i cannot get from any nurserys here in adelaide or bunnings. the plants arrived on the date you said you are my favourite nursery and i hope to make further purchases. thank you Peter Grover, POORAKA SA (8th Mar 2008)

Wonderful service. Looking forward to when they finally fruit. Jason Watson, BELGRAVE VIC (8th Mar 2008)

All 108 plants I purchased from Daleys Nursery arrived in excelent condition. I lost 5 due to the flooding from heavy rains in January. The remainder are now three times there original size and very healthy. I would recomend Daleys Nursery to anyone who wanted good quality plants. John Stansfield, WONDUNNA QLD (8th Mar 2008)

Great advice and nothing seemed to difficult. Thanks Cathy Cathy Lennox, BLAKEHURST NSW (8th Mar 2008)

Honestly you guys were spectacular. The courier didn't find me or attempt to contact me, when i got my plants they were a little unwell. Thankfully you helped me nurse them back to life. PS I'm the stats guy at our company. You're skewing your results by having the defaults set on the most positive result. If you want real results remove any default setting Ben Paris, NEWSTEAD (QLD) QLD (7th Mar 2008)

The mulberry tree is doing really well and already has fruit on it. Just not sure what to do about pruning it, as it seems to be growing upwards but not outwards if you know what I mean...The avocado is doing ok, we have had a few really hot days and I think some of the leaves got burnt. It doesn't seem to be growing as well. Miranda McFarlane, PARKINSON QLD (3rd Mar 2008)

Very friendly service - Kath is a treasure! Give her a raise in salary! Now! Robert van de Groenekan, MALMSBURY VIC (28th Feb 2008)

Ordered these from England for relatives in Melbourne. Very helpful and prompt service. The plants are doing well. Rossy McLaren, (25th Feb 2008)

I am so very glad that Daleys now offer an online shop service to the general public as it's much faster and efficient than trying to get plants and trees from the local nursery. Also, I have never had a problem with any order or any plants or trees I have ever ordered from Daleys. Additional to this, your staff are well-versed in your product, so thank you for a job well done. Keep up the good work! Sandra Carter, ERMINGTON NSW (21st Feb 2008)

Your staff were very helpful and professional. Your website is very well layed out and easy to move around in, especially given the amount of useful information you have to offer. Delivery and packing was well handled and it was good friendly advice they gave when informing me there was still room in the packing container for more plants. Well done and a great services !! Mathew White, STANWELL PARK NSW (21st Feb 2008)

As an overseas customer, I was very impressed with the ease of ordering and the great service in delivering to my son in NSW. I believe the fruit trees are doing fine! Laurence Green, (19th Feb 2008)

Christmas gifts were delightfully received. Now just waiting for a couple of years to pass and hopefully some fruit! RACHEL POLDY, (18th Feb 2008)

Delivery was super fast and the suprise element was just great. I found your website info made it easy to pick the plants I wanted. Glenda Briggs, (17th Feb 2008)

Everything was delivered quickly and is all growing well. Thank you. Zeljko Rob, ENDEAVOUR HILLS VIC (17th Feb 2008)

so far so good but how to treat various leaves diseases Thanks Shimon Shimon Hemli, BELLEVUE HILL NSW (17th Feb 2008)

Thanks for the wonderful packing. All trees arrived in good condition and even lasted 'til I got organised to get them out of the box and into a holding spot in the garden. Some were Christmas pressies so there are now Longan trees planted in Canberra and Kallista in the Dandenong ranges. We had an orchard of longans in far north Queensland so we'll have to wait and see how they go here! I will let you know. I hope you've recovered from all the floods! Thanks for the great service. Cheerio, Barb Barb McFarlane, KALLISTA VIC (16th Feb 2008)

Fantastic service. plants arrived in perfect condition . All have survived numerous 40+ degree days and no rain. Two plants look a bit crook but the others are doing well. Panama berry is almost 6" tall and lush. Your plants make the over-priced rootbound stock at the local bunnings look sad. Thanks again P.S We cant wait to order more in the cooler months. Kim Welstead, GAWLER SA (15th Feb 2008)

Your web site is great, full of great info with a really friendly helpful feel about it. Looking forward to doing more business with you in the near future. Sharon Songhurst, MANLY WEST QLD (15th Feb 2008)

I was very happy to get such sturdy and established plants. Have had mail order plants from other places before which arrive crushed or tipped up and soil everywhere. The plants from Daleys came well packed and not a leaf out of place. I planted them straight out into the ground and they have thrived, with a lot of new growth. It's great to be able to pick from such a large range of fruit trees, as we can't buy anything like that locally. Thanks also for the voucher. It will be put to good use soon on my next order. Cheers, Rob Nancarrow Smythesdale, Vic Robert Nancarrow, SMYTHESDALE VIC (15th Feb 2008)

Hi, your website is great, I gave one of the plants to my neighbour who is now enthused about dwarf citrus and I'm hoping my daughter, who let me know about you in the first place and was the recipient of the other plants, is looking after hers. Thanks again for your great service. Kind regards Janice Cain, KIRRA QLD (12th Feb 2008)

I was impressed with the speed of delivery and the careful packaging of the plants. Elizabeth Leitner, LANE COVE NORTH NSW (11th Feb 2008)

When I contacted Daley's Nursery I received the best service I have received anywhere for a long time.The service was so quick it was like Daley's was just in the next suburb.Information given on how to care for plants when they arrived was very helpful.The level of care taken to get them here felt like I was receiving the most pricless of all plants, Thanking you Gill Andre, ETTALONG BEACH NSW (10th Feb 2008)

Very happy with the plants. I repotted them a few weeks after they arrived. One has a few bites out of it now so I have to keep an eye on it but they all have plenty of new growth. The rain in Sydney has been good for them. Vicki Bolling, OATLEY NSW, (9th Feb 2008)

I'm always happy with the plants I purchase from Daleys, it's the first place I go when I'm in the market for new trees. I enjoy the convenience of ordering online, safe in the knowledge my trees will arrive promptly and in excellent condition. I have no hesitation in recommending Daleys Nursery. Angela Harvey, MINDEN QLD (8th Feb 2008)

Great service and communications. Plants doing very well. Happy and healthy. Should have got more. Will return in the near future. THanks. Keep up the good work. Irene Story, HODGSON VALE QLD (3rd Feb 2008)

Plants were packaged with care but is too expensive to transport to Melbourne. I have given family & friends recomedation but postage is an issue. Kind Regards Teresa Buttigieg, SUNSHINE WEST VIC, (2nd Feb 2008)

Was pleased to also receive printed catalogue & other helpful material. Thank you for these extra services. George Walker, BANGOR NSW (1st Feb 2008)

I look forward to using you again Jim FitzSimons NEUTRAL BAY NSW, (30th Jan 2008)

The shipping costs are big, but the way the plants are packed was alright. thanks for the great service! your websites looks a bit old fashioned, but is working well, means functionality is good. Meike Borkeloh, DEERAL QLD (28th Jan 2008)

I ordered 3 citrus trees suitable for pots. I was amazed when they arrived at how big and healthy they were. I planted them in pots and they are powering. very healthy with lots of new growth. Thank you Sharran Fritsch, CRESCENT HEAD NSW (27th Jan 2008)

I was delighted with the speedy service and healthy condition of the plants. They have continued to thrive. Will certainly use Daleys again if I can only find somewhere to plant more stuff! (I live on a 400 sq m city block.)  Bobbie Moller, RED HILL, QLD (27th Jan 2008)

I order from Daley's because I can get plants that I cannot find locally. Some have failed because they are simply not suitable, but my friends are delightfully surprised by the variety of plants that I have been able to grow.Selection of plants from the website is made easy by the in-depth comments and instructions given, and all care is made to ensure that everything arrives in the best possible state. Thank you Daleys. Peggy McKenzie, WENTWORTH NSW (25th Jan 2008)

I was delighted how efficient your company has been in the order and delivery. I have also been very happy with the quality of the plants you have sent me. I like the larger size plants you send and they have all been very healthy. All are thriving. I also like the information available on your website about the plants as this plays a large role in helping me to determine which plants are best for my needs. I am also impressed with the variety of plants you have available and the email reminders if things are out of stock. Any chance of getting into medicinal plants? Overall I have found the quality of the plants I have received from you and the service provided by your staff, to be exceptional. Well done. Karen Bridgman, WARRIEWOOD SHOPPING SQUARE NSW (25th Jan 2008)

We receive all the plants in great condition. Most are going really well. Thank-you for all the information on the website and the information you sent in the box with the trees. Chris Vakas, KAWUNGAN QLD, (22nd Jan 2008)

My avocado plants arrived in Hornsby Heights looking as though they had just come from around the corner. I am following the instructions that came with them and have already sought advice and promptly received it, even in the midst of your floods. Annette Collins, HORNSBY HEIGHTS NSW (21st Jan 2008)

Ordering for the first time through Daleys. Has been really helpful especially e-mails through Kath.The service was excellent! Plants arrived in two days (I think) and very healthy. Instructions for the plants were supplied as well. Thanks once again. Kim Lim MENAI NSW (21st Jan 2008)
