The Drylands Permaculture Nursery
Since 1989, we have been operating as a locally
owned nursery in Geraldton, Western Australia.
We specialise in propagating multi-use permaculture
and local native plants, suited to our arid and
semi-arid environment.
Our Catalogue
This catalogue lists our current stock of plants, together with useful information that includes
their suitability to different soil types, size and their water requirements. They are grouped into
climbers, groundcovers and small shrubs, grass/bamboo’s, shrubs and trees.
You can use this information to select which plants are the most suitable for you. We can
assist you in determining how many plants you may need and advise you of the best way to
support their healthy growth when you visit our nursery.
How to Buy Our Plants
Visit our nursery on the corner of David Rd (North) and Tramway Rd in Waggrakine, Geraldton
to buy plants from our catalogue range or have us grow your plants to order for you.
For retail sales, please check out our website page
for opening hours or you can call us on (08)9938
1628 or email us at [email protected] to arrange
an alternative time.
For plants grown to order, our minimum order is one
‘tray’ of 40 tube-stock seedlings. Orders need to be
confirmed by December for the following planting
season to allow time for us to collect seed and raise
the seedlings.
For all sales, you can pay by eftpos, cheque, direct deposit or cash. We have an $11 delivery
charge on orders to Geraldton freight company depots and cater for courier pick ups.
Price List
Our catalogue is seperate from our stock and price list. This is available from our website.
Prices vary according to size, age and rarity.
Our Quality Plant Range
All our stock is grown here at our farm. We believe in growing
the best quality plants and produce a unique range of sun and
wind hardened native plants that other nurseries do not offer.
We are not a certified organic nursery but do practice
organic growing methods and integrated pest management
techniques. So even the frogs find our nursery an easy place
to find what they are looking for!
Here’s to a good season.
