• Credit accounts terms are net 30 days.
• We accept Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Interac, E-tranfers or direct deposit for payment.

• The interest rate charged on overdue accounts is 18% per annum.

Returning used containers
We will no longer accept used containers (pots) back from customers.  We tried to reuse pots multiple times but unfortunately too many were returned in unusable condition.  Recycling facilities will not take pots with soil so the pots ended up at the dump.  Please rinse the containers and drop them off at a recycling depot.

About the company:

Streamside Native Plants only sells plants that are native to coastal British Columbia.  Our customers include private home owners, developers, golf courses, landscapers, parks departments, schools, societies and various levels of governments.

Richard Wahlgren is the owner/manager of Streamside Native Plants.  He received a BSc. (Agriculture) from the University of British Columbia in 1979. During the summer of 2000 the Malaspina University-College Fisheries Field Technician Certificate program was successfully completed.  Over the last 19 years Richard has gained lots of hands on experience working with native plants.  This has proved valuable in writing successful planting prescriptions, propagating and selling healthy plants, and planting re-vegetation projects all over Vancouver Island.
