INTERNATIONAL ORDERS

Floret offers limited international shipping of seeds. At this time Floret only ships seeds to Canada, Australia (50 packet limit), and the United States.

As of November 2019, Floret no longer ships seeds to countries in the European Union. Read more about this decision and access our list of international specialty seed sources.

If you are placing an order from outside the United States, it is your responsibility to understand your country’s restrictions, duties, and any special requirements in order to receive imported goods. If your country restricts packages based on the value of the contents, you must ensure that each order you place is within this limit. If you wish to order seeds or products that exceed that value, you should place separate orders, each within the limit.

Floret LLC has no control over additional fees and is not responsible for confiscated items, delayed orders, or any additional duties or taxes that may be imposed by your country’s customs office or other government agencies.  

Packages returned to Floret due to a failure or refusal to pay the duties or taxes are ineligible for a refund of shipping fees and will be subject to a 20% restocking fee.
