Does Decadent Daylilies Nursery Ship to My State and Is Shipping Free?

Updated

Yes, if you live anywhere in Australia. Decadent Daylilies Nursery states that it posts to all states and territories — Queensland, South Australia, Western Australia, New South Wales, Northern Territory, Victoria and Tasmania — and free postage applies to orders over $50. The two conditions that matter before you order are your delivery address being in Australia and your order total reaching that $50 threshold.

Where the nursery delivers

The site lists every Australian state and territory as a delivery destination:

  • New South Wales
  • Victoria
  • Queensland
  • South Australia
  • Western Australia
  • Tasmania
  • Northern Territory

It also names metropolitan, major regional and city areas it welcomes customers from, including Perth, Hobart, Melbourne, Geelong, Canberra, Sydney, Newcastle, Wollongong, Adelaide, Brisbane, the Gold Coast and the Sunshine Coast. That list is illustrative rather than a limit — the stated coverage is all of Australia, so a regional or remote address within those states and territories is still within the advertised delivery area.

When shipping is free

Free postage is advertised for orders over $50. That is the only shipping condition stated on the page, so:

  • If your order total exceeds $50, postage is free.
  • If your order is at or below $50, the page does not state a postage rate — you would need to confirm the cost before completing checkout.

The $50 figure is a threshold, not a flat rate, and the site does not publish a postage table for smaller orders.

Timing: plants are only sold in season

Delivery coverage is not the only thing that decides whether you can order. The nursery sells its plants seasonally:

Plant type Ordering window
Daylilies May to November
Louisiana Iris March to October

Bearded Iris is also listed in the catalogue, but the page does not give a separate ordering window for it. If you are outside the relevant window, the variety you want may not be available to buy even though your state is covered.

If ordering online doesn't work

The nursery acknowledges that customers sometimes have trouble ordering mail order plants and offers a phone line for help: 02 60350529. Use it if the online shop rejects your address, if you cannot tell whether your order qualifies for free postage, or if you want to confirm availability of a specific variety before the season closes.

What to check before you order

  1. Confirm your delivery address is in Australia — the nursery posts to all states and territories.
  2. Check the calendar: daylilies May–November, Louisiana Iris March–October.
  3. Build your order to over $50 if you want free postage.
  4. If your order is under $50, or you are unsure about anything, call 02 60350529 rather than assuming a shipping cost.

The nursery grows over 1,000 daylily varieties plus bearded and Louisiana Irises, and describes itself as an online mail order operation based in New South Wales, so orders are placed remotely and shipped rather than collected in person.
