Species we grow

We grow niche native species, skewed towards those that produce fine timber and critical ecological benefit, plus some oddities we simply love.

Most are grown from seed collected by hand from remnant rainforest on our farm at Wattamolla, at the eastern end of Kangaroo Valley.

The availability below is updated regularly. If you're after some of these little beauties, please get in touch. Plants are available for pickup from Leichhardt in Sydney or from the farm at Wattamolla (2535). We travel regularly between the two, so ask about a drop-off along the way. Postage can be arranged for those further afield.

Most of our plants are grown in Mega Tubes: 90 × 90 × 150 mm square pots with root-training ribs and an air-pruning base, holding about 750 ml of soil. Red Cedar is also available in larger sizes, up to a few specimens over 1 m tall.
