Tropical Aquarium Plant Pack - Special

Any order containing live plants on their own or mixed with a combination of other items will be collectively delivered within 14 working days. Including live plants in an order does go against our next day shipping policy.

  • We guarantee you that you will not find better quality anywhere else.
  • Super fresh
  • Well rooted
  • Strong and healthy
  • The absolute very best specimen of each named genera!

The condition of your plant may vary by order date and from what you see in your local store. We aim to give you the largest and most luscious plant possible but this is dependant on the time of year and seasonal variation.

With aquascaping in mind, we've put together a superb mixture of 5 of the highest quality potted aquarium plants which have been carefully selected by our experienced team of plant experts in Holland.

These are not just your average aquarium plants. Super fresh, well rooted, strong and healthy - this box of plants will vary slightly from week-to-week, depending on availability, and therefore ensuring you have the absolute very best specimen of each named genera!

We guarantee that you will not find better quality elsewhere.

This pack will contain 5 different aquarium plant genera: Alternanthera, Anubias, Cryptocoryne, Echinodorus and Hygrophila

  1. ALTERNANTHERA - A popular aquarium plant for its contrasting colour and broad leaves. Alternanthera  is a vigorous and robust aquarium plant which tolerates strong water movement. Requires bright lighting.
  2. ANUBIAS - Anubias are very popular aquarium plants because of the beautiful crimped, oval-shaped leaves. Young leaves are a green-brown colour that change to an intense green as they mature. Due to the slow growth rate, and ease of keeping, this plant is perfectly suited to both small and large aquaria.
  3. CRYPTOCORYNE - Cryptocorynes are by far the most popular foreground aquarium plants. This plant species has a huge variety of different shaped and coloured leaves, which generally grow better under high light conditions, but will also tolerate lower levels too.
  4. ECHINODORUS - Echinodorus are, in general, easy growing aquarium plants, with a wide range of leaf shapes and colours. Whilst they generally prefer higher light levels, they will tolerate a wide range of conditions.
  5. HYGROPHILA - This is an ideal 'starter aquarium plant', being easy to care for and fast growing. The leaves are fairly robust with a red and green colouration. If the plant grows too tall, the tops may be cut off and re-planted in the substrate to grow again.

Delivery

Delivery costs for your order will be calculated during the checkout process based on your delivery address and the contents of your basket. You will only pay one delivery charge for your order. Express delivery is FREE for online orders OVER £39 unless any of the points below become a factor.

  • Some large items like aquariums, ponds and pond liners will have an additional charge of £45.00 to help offset the cost of a pallet delivery.
  • Orders containing a physical gift card will have an additional charge of £2.45 to cover the cost of materials and delivery (digital gift cards are a free alternative).
  • Orders to highlands, islands and Northern Ireland may incur an additional delivery charge displayed at checkout this is based on the postal code provided. DPD provides a list of postal codes which have additional surcharges. Some of these post codes may also take 2 working days to arrive, even on express. Pallet deliveries cannot be sent to these post codes.

We only ship to the UK and cannot ship internationally.

We aim to dispatch items that are currently in stock on the same working day if they are ordered before 2.45 pm (excluding Bank Holidays). Orders after 3pm will be dispatched the following working day, unless it fits any of the below criteria:

  • Orders containing live plants will take up to 2 weeks to arrive. We take a week's worth of customer orders and then inform the plant farms of the specific quantities we need to fulfil that week's order to avoid wastage.
  • Pallet orders containing large items like big aquariums will take additional time to arrive as they are sent by a third party. These orders will NOT be dispatched until we have been in touch to arrange a delivery date, this is to ensure someone is available at your address to sign for the delivery. Deliveries will generally be delivered ‘curb side’ within the terms of the agreement we have with our couriers so you will need to make arrangements to transfer larger items into your home yourself. Unfortunately, our drivers are not insured to transfer the aquarium into your home.
  • Physical gift cards and items from the gift shop (such as clothes, towels etc) are sent with 1st Class Royal Mail. Delivery usually takes 1-2 working days, though in rare cases and orders placed closer to public holidays (Christmas, Father’s day, Mother’s day etc.) may be longer.
