Packing process

Each one of the plants gets the best treatment before shipping. After harvesting the plants from the field they are washed in our new washing machine with special attention given to the root system. All plants and roots are treated to prevent root problems. This is followed by grading to specification and packing. The smaller plants are packed in boxes and kept in cold storage at 2 degrees Celsius until shipping. The bigger plants are stored after grading in sand outdoors and just before shipment they are washed again and covered with plastic bags.

Delivery

The plants are packed into reefer containers at 2 degrees Celsius and it is usual for them to take approximately 10-14 days to get to our customers.
