An additional $6 fee applies to cover quarantine inspection fees. All WA seed orders are subject to Quarantine WA inspection, which may result in delays beyond our control. For more information, please refer quarantine policy.

  • Shipping to Tasmania:

An additional $3 fee covers Biosecurity Tasmania paperwork—maximum 1kg per seed line item. Biosecurity Tasmania restrictions apply.

 

WA order dispatch time: 

WA orders are packed once a week on Wednesday and shipped out on Thursday. To ensure that your orders are processed and shipped out each Thursday, please place them before midnight (AEDT - Sydney time) on Tuesday. This applies no matter whether Express Post service is chosen for the order.

WA orders go to the Quarantine WA office at Perth Airport for inspection before being sent to your shipping address by the Quarantine Officers. Your tracking number will be activated once the inspection is complete, which may take up to 10 business days after we have packed and dispatched your order.

The tracking number will stay in a 'Pending' status until Quarantine Officers have inspected your shipment at Perth Airport.

Depending on the postal service you pay for the order, it will generally take an additional 1 to 5 business days for your shipment to arrive from Perth Airport to your address within WA. However, please note that delays beyond our control may occasionally occur. 

Signature on delivery: An additional $2.95 applies if you require a signature on delivery service. If you haven't requested a signature, the postie will check for a safe place or letterbox (if it fits) to leave your item. They'll take it to the Post Office for collection if a safe place can't be found. 

No Discount on Postage:  Our special discount event means seeds are available at discounted prices. However, postage costs remain the same, i.e. there won't be any discount on the postage costs - so check out our postage rate table to find out exactly how much it will cost before you stock up on your favourites!

You shall receive an email / SMS notification with a tracking number as soon as your order has been dispatched. We dispatch ALL seed orders via Australia Post tracking letters for certainty & peace of mind. 

We may use Australia Post Registered Post, which requires a signature on delivery, or you may need to present your ID to collect it.

Eggplant-Tsakoniki Seeds

I couldn't get them to sprout !! I had them in my incubator and I didn't get them up I did get the red capos the shallots though

Starts like a tortoise, finishes like a hare.

This is one of those eggplant varieties that take 4 weeks to pop their heads out, but then just explode. I gave up on them coming out after all 5 other varieties germinated, but then slowly they started popping out 4-6 weeks after I planted the seeds.
Now in late Nov, they're the biggest of all varieties.

As far as taste, all the older Mediterranean neighbours reckon they're amongst the best tasting eggplants. I'll hopefully find out soon.

Poor Germination

Now usually don’t have any problems with this seed company but for some reason, either it’s the variety/quality of the seeds or my own care but none of the seeds have shown any signs of germination. I have them on a heat mat as well so I’m guessing temperature isn’t the issue
