Our Nurseries

We operate three nurseries across Auckland, covering over 60 acres. Our head office and main sales hub is at 436 Puhinui Road, Wiri, where we house the majority of our evergreen native stock, as well as our largest transplant-grade trees (30+ year old specimen trees). 122a Opaheke Road, our second nursery specializes in deciduous trees from 16L through to 1000L grades. Our third site, located at 80 West Road, Clevedon, features our unique collection of mature olive trees (30+ year-old transplants) as well as our in-ground planting site, which has over 6,000 specimen trees being cultivated for future projects.

Logistics

We provide a comprehensive end-to-end delivery service nationwide. In the wider Auckland region, deliveries are handled by our own fleet of vans, trucks, utes, and large trailers. For deliveries beyond Auckland, our partnerships with specialized horticultural carriers ensure coverage from Cape Reinga to Bluff. For larger trees (400L+), these are transported via Hiab trucks.
