Natives

Our collection of Natives are resilient, hardy and thrive in hot, dry summers and frosty, cold winters. Perfect choices include drought-tolerant plants like Silver Tussock, Kanuka, and Corokia, alongside iconic and robust Hebes. These plants offer low-maintenance structure, year-round interest, and vital habitat for local birdlife, perfectly adapted to the region’s free-draining, rocky soil conditions.
