Seedlings and garden plants in the Philippines

Updated 4 November 2026

Live garden plants in the Philippines cost from about ₱49 for a mulberry cutting to about ₱1,380 for a climbing rose seedling, according to sellers' websites, November 2026. Many live-plant listings include a free pot and garden soil, which changes what you actually pay. For a quote on the plants you want, describe them on BlaBlaPrice.

Rules for nurseries and imported plants

A nursery that sells plants needs accreditation from the Department of Agriculture's Bureau of Plant Industry (DA-BPI), and its planting material needs certification. Plants and planting materials brought in from abroad need a Plant Quarantine Clearance, and the importer files an application for it. Ask a seller whether it is an accredited plant nursery before you place a large order.

Season, sun and planting time

The climate is hot all year, with wet and dry seasons instead of winter and summer. Plants bought in the dry months need regular watering, while the wet season does much of that work for you. Tell the seller where the plant will stand, indoors or outdoors, because some plants are sold for both, such as foxtail plants.

Sizes, pots and delivery

Live plants are listed by height, in feet or centimetres, and by pot size. Ask for the height in centimetres, and check whether the pot and soil are included, because many listings add a free plastic pot, garden soil and a seedling bag. Delivery is arranged with the seller for your city, so name Manila, Quezon City, Cebu City, Davao City or Makati in the request.

What to write in your request

Name the plant, its grade, the quantity and the age or size you want. Say what the plant is for, such as a hedge, a vegetable bed or a pot on a balcony, and whether it should be indoors or outdoors. Add your city and budget, and sellers can then propose a plant that fits.
