The Internet is a great place to start looking for information on bamboo growers and bamboo plant species. Logon to your preferred search engine (we use google.com) and type your search terms into the search field e.g. “buy Timor Black Bamboo plants”.

The search engine results page will list a lot of websites for you to look through. We find that people who have undertaken bamboo research on the web do not haggle over prices during enquiries we receive as they have found our pricing to be value for money when compared to other websites.

We advise visitors that they should look for information and comments made about nurseries, bamboo plants and customer service. Unfortunately, some people have had negative experiences when buying Bamboo plants online, so it is a good idea to look for positive references and to see how long the business has been operating to ensure you are dealing with a reputable bamboo supplier.

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. Reputable Bamboo wholesalers will have delivery arrangements in place to ensure that trucks make deliveries up to three times a week and therefore you would be able to expect that your plants would be delivered within a few days of making your order. For instance, if your delivery point is Brisbane, Bamboos Wholesale Nursery will normally be able to deliver bamboo plants overnight at reasonable freight rates. These freight rates are reduced even further if the bamboo plants are collected from the freight company terminal.

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.

You will find that when dealing with a wholesale bamboo nursery, minimum quantity orders will apply as freight is simply not viable for a small number of plants.

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.
