Why Buying Plants Online Is A Great Idea

Ease Of Use

We all know how much easier the internet has made our lives. In the old days if we were looking for a TV set to buy we would have to jump in the car and drive to the different stores and spend a lot of time searching, comparing and travelling to finally get the one we want.

Nowadays we can do all that online, and buying plants is no exception. Online retail has made things so much easier.

Images

Online you can view many, many different images of the plants you like. You can also do this wandering around a nursery but online you can search for images of plant in different stages of growth and in different settings. You can search and find out what English Box looks like along a winding driveway or what Magnolia Little Gem looks like against the side of a weatherboard house. This is one of the best features of buying your plants online.

Compare

Walking through a nursery is great but if you see a plant you like you can not compare the prices with other nurseries. How do you know you are getting the best deal? Buying plants online allows you to compare different plants with different Garden Centres so you know you are getting the best price for your hard earned dollar. You can also compare the quality of the different plants online with the images supplied.

Information

There is so much information at your fingertips when you shop online. You do not have to be afraid to ask silly questions and you can ask as many as you want. The net is full of useful information about plants and trees and we can access it anywhere at anytime.

Delivery

Plants are heavy. They also can leak water and dirt into your nice clean car and often the height of many plants means you can not purchase the larger ones you really want. Buying online with the added service of delivery (in many cases same day delivery) means you do not even have to leave the house when you make your purchase. No heavy lifting, no dirty car and no restriction on the size of the plants you buy.
