I have been ordering from Everglades Farms for years now. These papaya are planted near my kitchen. Looking forward to a great breakfast.
Plants were packed extremely well, shipped and arrived very fast. Extremely well developed roots which made the price amazing!
I received a healthy tree well packaged. The price was reasonable. The tree is planted and doing well.
I know it will grow into a big tree if taken care of. Maybe the shipping got to it but it arrived with few leaves but so far it is recovering!
No dead leaves. Healthy and robust looking.
Received my tree well packaged and protected a month ago. Very healthy plant and is flourishing nicely. I am very pleased with the size and quality of the plant that I received. Thank you Everglades Farm

**04-14-2025 update**. We currently require a Phytosanitary Certificate to ship to California, which incurs a cost of $129.95 per box. However, we are exploring options to potentially ship to California without this certificate by the end of July 2025. We will update our policies accordingly if this becomes possible.
We ship our trees using custom-made carton boxes. Our trees typically ship via FedEx ground. Depending on your destination, it can take 2-7 days for your tree to arrive. 99% of the time, the trees arrive alive to their final destination. Our trees are shipped in a container with soil.
Most fruit trees can be grown in a container. Follow the recommendations below...
Follow the simple instructions below to plant your tree on the ground...
Our warranty only covers the tree arriving alive and in fair condition. If you receive your tree in a condition in which the tree may not survive, please take a few pictures and submit them via email to our address: service@everglades.farm. Please do this within 48 hours or receiving your tree. We will review your email and get back to you within a few days. Remember to Keep the box in case we ask you to ship the plant back to us. Our warranty does not apply once you have planted the tree on the ground.
We get a lot of requests for pictures. Unfortunately, we are not able to accommodate this request, as we stock over 10,000 trees in different sizes. Completing the task of sending a picture of a specific tree to a customer can take 1-2 hours per request. And this same tree can be sold the very same day to another customer. Fortunately, our web site has pictures of most of our trees, which are remarkably like the actual tree that you will receive.
We recommend granular fertilizer for most of the tropical fruit trees.
You can purchase the fertilizer on our website thru the link below...
