For those of us who missed the ordering cut-off for plants from our local nurseries this year we are going to have a try at a community purchase with Narromine Transplants and see how it works out for us. Then later this year we will remind everyone to get orders in for their Autumn 2026 plantings as needed by our local nurseries.

If you are looking to plant this Autumn and haven’t been able to source trees/shrubs this could be your opportunity. We will look into going out to collect the plants or getting them delivered to a central location around here. You will need to be able to collect the plants when they arrive.

There will be a minimum order of 80 plants with a minimum number of 10 of each species. These plants will come in the Hiko trays of 40 each. These are smaller than the usual tubestock pots and do need to be planted quicker as they will be ready to go in when you receive them. You will be invoiced for the plants once you have received them.

The list of available stock is here. Please send us an email with the species and numbers you want and we will do our best to get your order. Please note the stock available on the attached list is not accurate and is changing each day as new orders come in. Also note that many of these species are not local to this area and if you would like some advice on species selection feel free to call Tracee ph. 0417 799 425.

We will need you to get the list of what you want back to us by next Friday the 7th March in order to have the best chance of getting everything. Prices will depend on how many plants people order and we will only be able to run this if we get a good amount of orders through.
