25.01.2022 We may be running low on vegetable seedlings, but we still have some excellent Bush Tucker plants like these fingerlimes. Also just in is our next batch of seed potatoes! #growyourownfood #bushtuckergarden #gardeningisgoodforthesoul

23.01.2022 Just in, is the extensively revised edition of the Banksias book. It has descriptions and illustrations of all 79 known species and provides history of their discovery, evolution, how to find them and grow them. With some 400 beautiful colour illustrations, it is a comprehensive, up-to-date guide to these unique and fascinating plants. A great read for a rainy day! Price: $69.95.

21.01.2022 We have a very attractive young rooster that is looking for a home. Update: it now has a new home. Thank you.

21.01.2022 We have some lovely water bowls for water plants, fish, frogs..... and Isla. What a cutie!

19.01.2022 Here is a rare opportunity for a day trip to visit the magical Cypress Farm owned by Lionel Johnston and Kingsley Dixon. The farm was almost lost, but lovingly restored. The day trip is a fundraising event organised by the Friends of the Cancer Council.

18.01.2022 Our winter Bush Telegraph is out now (postal copy may take a couple more days). If you are looking for a winter read you can download it here: http://www.zanthorrea.com/bushtele.php If you enjoy it, you can sign up and have it emailed out quarterly. :) Fun Fact: The Zanthorrea Bush Telegraph is up to it's 126th edition making it one of the longest running horticulture publications in Australia. Our online editions go back to 2001!

15.01.2022 Sometimes the garden needs a little bit of help staying alive through summer! Remember the mulch, soil wetter, seaweed tonic and an efficient retic system! If you want more in-depth information, pop in for a chat. #stayinalive #droughttolerantplants #localbitsofbush #waterwisegardening

15.01.2022 We have a large selection of Grevilleas at the moment, including this new one: Aphrodite's Dream! What do you think? Beautiful pink toothbrush flowers on an upright shrub growing to around 2.5m. As with most grevilleas, they respond well to pruning, and can even be used to make an informal screen. They love to grow quickly in this warm weather, but will need some extra water for their first summer. Drought tolerant once established.... Other popular grevilleas back in stock are: G. Flamingo, G. Kay Williams, G. Honey Gem and G. Caloundra Gem.

13.01.2022 Our lovely atrium is getting a new roof from Monday 3rd of August, so if you pop in over the weekend you may notice it a little bit empty in there!! We will also use this opportunity to freshen up this space once all the work is complete. A thanks in advance for your patience with the disruption this may cause next week. The atrium will be closed to the public from Monday the 3rd to Wednesday the 5th of August.

10.01.2022 Gardening is an important part of our lives and plays a vital role in our health and wellbeing. We are currently open for business, to help you with your gardening needs. We are following government guidelines and have put additional measures in place to lower the risk. We have plenty of space in our garden centre, so please adopt safe distancing. Our staff will stay home if unwell and we ask you to do the same. We prefer ‘tap and go’ credit card payments to cash. Home delive...ry can be arranged for a small cost, or to avoid contact we can deliver your pre-ordered purchase to your waiting car. Please call the nursery for more details. We hope you stay safe and finds some peace in the garden. #gardeninghasnotbeencancelled

10.01.2022 From all of us at Zanthorrea, have a Tree-mendous Christmas and happy gardening! We will be closed for Christmas Day, but look forward to opening up again on Boxing Day (26th) at 9am for anyone who wishes to pop in for a visit. #plantpals #christmasgardening

08.01.2022 Feature Plant: Eremophila calorhabdos. We have a lovely batch of these eremophilas, commonly called the Red Rod Emu Bush, although ours flower more pink than red.Their long upright stems mean you can grow them in narrow spots, like up against a fence. They prefer a sunny, sandy spot, can tolerate alkaline soils, and are drought and frost tolerant. A very attractive garden specimen, and as an added bonus, flowers can be used for cut flower arrangements.

08.01.2022 Sunday the 20th of September, Kalamunda Rotary are hosting a 6km walk along the Railway Heritage Trail. A free event to attend, all monies raised go to the 'My Home' project - an initiative to build affordable homes for the homeless. Zanthorrea will be there with an information booth, for any questions on our local wildflowers and gardening. For more information, click through to The Rotary Club of Kalamunda FB page.

06.01.2022 Wishing everyone a safe and magnificent new year in 2021! Thank you for supporting Zanthorrea, and happy gardening! #surroundyourselfwithflowers #happygardening #happynewyear2021

05.01.2022 New to Zanthorrea is the Native Petuna, or Dipteracanthus australasicus if you prefer the botanical name. What a pretty flower, and the bees absolutely love them! They grow in a variety of soils in a sunny position. Native to the north of WA. I think they would look fantastic in a hanging basket, but can also be included in an outback style garden, or even a cottage garden. Numbers are limited with the first release of plants. Please call the nursery if you want one reserved for you and we can check numbers.
