Prices:
Our prices are based on pot size, growth rate, and tree height. For specific prices, send a request for a quote. But to give a feel:
1 litre styroblocks:
Trees in 1 litre styroblocks are $5.00 each. ($75/block of 15. Blocks with dead or sub-standard trees will pro-rated. ) Exceptions for very slow growing trees, such as bristlecone pine.
Most conifers are 8/foot regardless of species. Most deciduous trees are 4-6 per foot. Swedish Aspen are priced differently. Most shrubs are 8 per trade gallon.
Exceptions to the above for species that try my patience with their slow growth rates. At this point that list includes concolor fir, and bristlecone pine.
Exceptions also made for trees that are easy or very fast to grow, such as hybrid poplars and some willows.
Discounts
There are two systems of discounts.
Repeating Wholesale Customer
Discount level is based on the previous season's activity in your account.
One time purchase
Discount level is based on the size of each purchase.
BOTH systems of discounts apply. If you bought 2000 worth of trees
last year, then an order for fifty 2 gallon trees would be figured as:
50 x 12 = $600. Qualifies for 15% One time Purchase discount. But your last season discount is 10%. So you would pay $600 - 10% = $540. $540 - 15% = $459.50
Please note: A 20% discount followed by a 15% discount is NOT the same as a 35% discount. The second percentage is against a smaller base. Same idea as the employee who was given a 50% pay cut followed by a 50% pay raise.
| Repeating Wholesale Customer | One Time Large Purchase | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| Applies to All Orders | |||
| Last Year's Total is over | Discount is | ||
| $2000 | 10% | $200 | 10% |
| $5000 | 15% | $500 | 15% |
| $10000 | 20% | $1000 | 20% |
First Year Wholesale Customer
As you pass the various milestones on the Wholesale discount chart, that discount will apply to current and subsequent purchases E.g. During your first year if you place a $2500 order with me, you'd get both the large purchase discount, and the 10% repeating wholesale discount. So your net cost would be 2500 -20% = 2000. 2000 - 10% = 1800.
If you are buying more that $10,000 worth a trees per year from me, we'll sit down and talk.
