Smart Plants
We are a family-operated business producing around 100,000 plants per year.
We offer friendly, professional service and great plants to our customers.
About
We grow a large range of native plants including re-vegetation, forest, alpine and coastal species.
Complementing our native range is an extensive collection of Exotic Species including ornamental, alternative forestry and shelter.
Most species are available throughout the year (container grown) and some are also available
bare-rooted during winter months.
We are in regular contact with other wholesale nurseries and can source most plants for you.
We can help you to select plants suitable for your site from city to coastal.
Our customers visit us from all over the country and we supply to New Zealand customers only.
Please contact us - we are always happy to answer questions and offer advice on your individual planting needs.
