    Correa Little Pink Belle Is back in stock (and flower!) this week. This compact hybrid is a great option for a splash of autumn / winter colour - even in the more shaded corners of your native garden.

    If you’re interested in gardening with Australian plants this Saturday May 10 we’re holding a Native Plants Q & A with local Grevillea fanatic and obsessive native gardener Glen Ryan. 

Glen will be in the nursery from 10am to answer any questions about native plants - from soil preparation to pruning - plus will look specifically at some of the new grafted species and hybrid Grevilleas varieties in stock this week. We’ll have a great range of natives available on the day including grafted Eucalypts, Hakeas, Eremophilas and Grevilleas. 

The nursery is open 9am - 2pm this weekend - the Q & A will run from 10am until there are no more questions!

    Flowering gums are looking fantastic in the garden at the moment - and we have several grafted forms in stock this week. The nursery has new Autumn / Winter opening hours in May - we are now open 4 days a week - Thursday to Sunday, 9am to 2pm. #nativeplants #inthenursery #autumn #tilbatilba #beautifultilba
    Grevillea leptobotrys ‘Lilac Tangles’ is back in stock this week - with new grafted plants now in the nursery. This low-mounding WA grevillea with distinctive pink flowers also features blue/grey foliage + reddish new growth - making it an outstanding rockery feature. Our plants are grafted onto hardy rootstock which allows them to do well in local conditions. #inthenursery #nativeplants #grevilleas #grafted
    Grevilleas are adding a lot of vibrant autumn colour to local gardens so we’ve added a large range of new stock to the nursery this week - including the amazing grafted ‘Orange Wow’. We now have ten different grafted grevs available as well as grafted Eremophilas, Hakeas and flowering gums this week. #inthenursery #grevilleas #nativeplants #autumn
    Crowea ‘Poorinda Ecstasy’ currently flowering in the nursery. These compact natives are a great option for autumn/winter colour. #inthenursery #nativeplants #autumn #crowea #gardening
    Hakea ‘Burrendong Beauty’ is a beautiful low-growing native shrub with a stunning display of red/pink and white flowers in winter. Does well in a full sun position with well drained soil in SE NSW. A great option for a feature rockery plant - we have limited numbers still available this week in the nursery. #inthenursery #nativeplants #hakeas #autumn
    We have two grafted hakea species in stock this week - including the very showy Hakea francisiana ‘Intensity’ This is a medium to large shrub (up to 4m but can be lightly pruned to size) featuring large sprays or red/pink flowers well displayed in winter to spring. We also have the similar Hakea bucculenta with red flowers in stock.

In the past these showy WA hakeas have proven difficult to keep alive for extended periods in the humid summers of eastern Australia. However in recent years grafted plants have appeared on the market with much hardier rootstock - allowing these spectacular plants to do well in a wider range of conditions. These grafted hakeas are hardy in both coastal conditions ((image here is a garden plant growing near Corunna) and Canberra winters. #inthenursery #nativeplants #autumn #hakeas
