Sorry, we do not deliver to PO Boxes. On occasion a rural courier may leave a parcel at a PO Box if they have things set up with the homeowner to do so, however we cannot address a courier parcel ourselves.

Often couriers find there is no access to apartment buildings or gated communities. If they ring a buzzer to the building and no one answers, the courier will decide if it is safe to leave. If they decide it is unsafe, they will take it back to the courier depot where it will need to be collected.

Reviews

Beautiful gift

I was so pleased with the Tree Gifts basket I purchased for a friend. She absolutely loved it especially the native. It’s such a unique gift service which I will definitely use again.

Incredibly appreciated under all circumstances.

We have used this service (and will continue) more recently as each occasion has deserved it's respective gift. It allows us to manage our budget and give time to carefully think about a gift that will keep on giving. The team has been involved in choosing what they want to send, so it truly means that it is personally from all of us. Service has been reassuring, friendly, timely and generous with their time. Nothing has been too much trouble. We wish them more success and can highly recommend them without hesitation. Congratulations on a quality product and service.

A living reminder

Bought to remember a family member who had passed away. The recipient has planted the kowhai close to her back door where she will always see it and remember her Dad.

Ordered from the UK

Brilliant service, ordered on-line and asked if I could pay extra to get delivered for a saturday. Emailed straight back and was able to offer this due to it being local. Was for a 16 year old girl, she loved it and got pictures sent to me, so glad I could use a local shop. Much appreciated.
