Received substandard tree. Tree won't grow above the graft,top was snapped off when I received it. When contacted they tried every trick there is to shift the blame off themselves ,refused to refund or replace the damaged tree then disappeared Many plants get packed into one box even though you pay high delivery fee ,then no responsibility taken for damaged plants

Warranty should be better – Previous experiences were fine. You need to carefully rear the very limited warranty ,

Healthy Plants – We have purchased from Daleys several times over the past few months, and have been very pleased with the quality of the plants that we have received. All have arrived healthy, and professionally packed. Even the courier company that they use (Aramax) have given good service, which is unusual for them. All of the plants that we have purchased… Read more

have established well, and are growing nicely. Daleys have a wide variety of plants available, including hard to get varieties. If they are not in stock, then register your email address, and when the plant is back in stock they will notify you. This worked well with our recent purchase of a vanilla vine.

Disappointing customer service – Purchased a pomegranate tree which arrived 15 days after dispatch notice 7 days after estimated delivery, rootball completely dry and not a single leaf left on tree. Contacted Daleys who advised that this was due to the stress of being transported and said to let them know if it doesn’t bud next season. Will never buy on line again just have to live in hope now that they are right and it recovers

Fruitless – We've been waiting all winter for signs of life on our Gingko Biloba tree and it's been a fruitless waste of time... the tree we purchased from Daley's is dead wood! Not a bud to be seen!

I've been ordering plants from them over the last few years. The plants have always been good quality, and packaged well. I recently had an rare ssue, the staff went above and beyond to resolve the issue.

I was absolutly amazed with my Japanese Maple purchased online from Daleys. I have never received a plant online to be so well packed and looking as fresh as the day it was packaged. Plant was as advertised.

Low chill cherrys – Bought 2 expensive, bare root, low chill cherry's. One two way Minnie Royal and Royal Lee and one Royal Crimson. Both dead within 6 months. Should have been ok for my warm temperate climate? Shame as other plants from this supplier doing well. Don't waste money on these plants.

Online purchases – Bought a haas avo, kensington pride mango, 2 x blueberries, 1 x chilli and a ginger. The avo and mango were my main purchases. Really disappointed on arrival. Both tipped and smallish root growth. I get it to fit in the packaging but had no idea they would arrive like that a full price. Lesson learned do not buy fruit trees online, go there. Delivery was good, did take a while, if you're in a hurry maybe buy elsewhere.

phone contact would be great – Daley's has a great reputation. however the courier company used is useless!! it was Aramex, who did not follow directions to my home and lost/misplaced my pitaya cactus. given I am a pensioner I can I'll afford a blunder, by a courier, like that. please Daley become contactable by phone too, instead of just asking customers to email you, it doesn't help in times of upset.

Amazing postal service – Over the last few years I have purchased loquat trees and dwarf avocado trees. The service is second to none, these guys have it all worked out. Excellent varieties, extremely healthy young trees, excellent packaging and service, can’t fault, So happy, thank you for your service!!

Low quality plant, sick and infected by scale, yellowing leaves, leaves are usually bottle green – I have purchased many plants from Daley’s for many years. I recently purchased a plant that was in poor quality and suffering from a scale. I emailed with pictures. However this was not taken seriously and Danielle wrote an email putting it down to shipping. I wrote again explaining the scale and the the whole plant is sick with scale and… Read more

yellow from top to bottom. So as plant growers, Daley’s accepts no responsibility, as is easy to do with this online business. I will never purchase from Daley’s again. It’s one thing sending a sick plant, but without any backup customer service when pictures clearly show a yellow sick plant, this business is shabby and dismissive. No one is more disappointed than myself, I expected more from this company that I have been a customer with for many years.

Slow shipping – Ordered my fruit trees over 2 weeks ago. I asked for an update of when my plants can be dispatched. they could not provide due to a high backlog, and apologise for the delays. My advice to Daleys, temporarily stop pushing out your plants when you do not have sufficient people resources to deal with increasing demands.

Super easy. Plants arrived health and within 5 days – Fantastic service. I had never previously purchased plants online and was shocked by how easy it was to order and have the plants delivered. All within 5 days to have delivered to my door in Victoria. Plants all look very healthy.

Well trusted company, Daley’s fruit trees nursery – I live in Melbourne. I ordered a few fruit trees which are hard to find in Melbourne but Daley’s fruit tree nursery was the company I relied on to provide to me very healthy , rare fruit trees... like the wax jambu (red) which I pre-ordered and lucky I got a 60 cms healthy plant which is sitting proudly in the back yard. Good service.… Read more

Have always been very helpful and thorough with plant packaging – I have been to a lot of nurseries both online and in person, and although I cannot comment on Daleys actual nursery yet (due to distance), their online nursery is great. I like that they provide a lot of info on their plants and have different size options for budget. I was after Macadamia trees (they are very hard to source) and I did have to… Read more

wait months for the ones I was after (dwarf and gouros), but I put my name down and true to form, I received an email when they were ready for sale. For one, I missed out (they sold out quicker than I expected) but received another email when the next batch was ready so I purchased as soon as I got the email. I have purchased 2 times online so far (and have also purchased their fruit trees through a local nursery). Both packages arrived within a day or two (much quicker than I was expecting actually), well packed, and the plants did not suffer or dry out during delivery. Daleys provided planting instructions, as well as instructions on removing the plants from the box (as they are packed in tight so they don't fall over - I appreciate that). There was a lot of plastic though - plastic bags and tape, I guess there's not really a way around that. I have asked a few questions online before and always gotten a reply (sometimes within an hour or two, sometimes in a day or two). I would always rather go to a nursery in person to choose plants, but sometimes it's just not possible so I appreciate they post to save a very long drive.

Misleading ads – I bought dwarf avocado wurtz from them, delivered and i saw 2 different label on the tree. First label is original label avocado wurtz (semi dwarf, 4 to 10 meter height)and second is yellow label usually daley used, dwarf avocado wurtz (2 to 4 meter height). I contacted them, and they said that avocado wurtz is a semi dwarf, and it will not grow… Read more

10 meter in my climate. I am very dissapointed with this explanation. I want to buy dwarf not semi dwarf. I can buy semidwarf at bunning cheaper than daley. Beware with this nursery, i think they just change label as they like.

My favorite fruit tree nursery – Daley’s has a huge range of fruit trees. Especially love the explaination of which ones are low chill which we require in the subtropics. Always great service online and in store

Not a sugar maple – I was sent two trees that were meant to be the same species, sugar maples, these were bare rooted, when the leaves appeared I discovered one was variegated. Sugar maples are not variegated. Contact them, was offered a replacement tree but had to wait till next season, all good, happy ! Or so I thought, NOT happy. Waited till next season,… Read more

contacted nursery to ask where my replacement tree is?? They have now decided after 9 months that they are not going to honour their promise of a replacement.

Sad ! I really can't tolerate anyone who doesn't keep their word. One star because you can't choose ZERO.

Mixed – I am a big purchaser from daily Fruit tree nursery Generally speaking there packaging for delivery is better than excellent so far all the plans that have been delivered to me to my home address have survived the better part of six months I ordered a grape cutting, and what they sent me was so fragile I don't believe it will survive much longer… Read more

but all of their avocado trees are growing like wildfire, and all of their lemon trees are also growing likewise

so they come disease-free and very healthy

but their quality control is still a little bit suspect

Paid for large and received extra small tree – Hi there, I am writing to you to let you know how unhappy I am with the Dwarf Cherry Tree I received. I have ordered a "LARGE" bare root tree and I received an extra small tree instead. The tree you sent me is about 50cm tall in size and the trunk is so thin about the size of a drinking straw. This is definitely not what I paid for. On your… Read more

website you show the three different types of sizes something that the tree I received looks like an extra small.

Best quality stock and reliable fast delivery – As a Melburnian, I have used them frequently for buying sub-tropical fruit trees. The immaculate condition on their arrival is one of the reasons that these trees have thrived in sometimes intemperate weather.
