Houseplants in Australia

Updated 4 November 2026

Houseplants in Australia sell for about A$12 to A$105, depending on the species, the pot size and whether the plant is a small seedling or a mature specimen. A small plant in a 110 to 130 mm pot sits at the bottom of the range, while a large monstera or fiddle fig sits at the top. For prices in your city, describe the plant in a request on BlaBlaPrice.

Quarantine rules when plants cross state lines

Plants are regulated when they move between states, and the rules cover plant goods such as fruit, vegetables, nursery stock, flowers and seeds. Postal services advise checking the quarantine rules before posting any plant. Victoria publishes a Plant Quarantine Manual with the requirements for moving regulated material into the state, and in Western Australia propagatable plants must be listed as permitted on the state's organism list. Ask a seller in another state to confirm the quarantine check before you pay.

Season and light

November is the start of summer in the southern hemisphere. Summer runs from December to February, when a plant near a hot, sunny window can scorch, and winter runs from June to August, when light is weaker and growth slows. Ask the seller which light the plant needs and whether it suits your room, especially for a bathroom or hallway with little natural light.

What to write in your request

Name the plant type, the size, the pot and how many plants you want. Say whether you need repotting, which city you are in and your budget in A$. If the plant is for a bathroom or a room with little light, say that too, so sellers can suggest suitable options.

BlaBlaPrice is free for buyers. Describe the plant in your own words in a chat, and add a photo if you have one. The AI asks for missing details such as pot size and delivery city, looks through Australian sellers' websites and price lists, and shows the prices it finds. Registered sellers reply with their own offer, price and delivery terms, and your contacts stay hidden until you choose to share them. You can also browse Home decor or Garden and allotment.
