Rebecca was so lovely with helping me pick out a range of natives for my garden renovation. Her knowledge of all of the various plant species and their suitability to my garden (shade with alkaline coastal soil) was brilliant. I'll be back to buy more plants next season!read more

Amazing, friendly staff who know their stuff, beautiful environment, a little playground with a slide and seating for little kids, many shady areas in the outdoor section, great selection of native plants. Some really gorgeous decorative items too, from hanging chimes to giant metal flowers.

Never tire of this place...An Australian wonderland...if you're there late in the afternoon you might get a glimpse of the bandicoots doing zoomies whilst they hang around to raid the chook pen. Over the years I have filled my garden with their gorgeous West Aussie plants...Just magical wandering through their beautiful gardens too...We're sooo lucky in the West to have our beautiful unique plants...and a place that's doing its darnedest to save as many of our species as possible...read more

This is my favourite shop in the whole state. It's a beautiful, relaxing, serene environment where you can make a cup of tea and browse the top-quality plants, sit and be surrounded by succulents, watch the birds and chickens and listen to the frogs. There are toilet facilities (too much tea?) and a playground for the kids. The shop is full of gorgeous gifts and there is always something new. Their plants are potted in the best quality soil I've seen, I've never had a plant die and they can remain in the pot for sometime before planting (unlike some big warehouse plants that must be taken out immediately). I travel 5 hours to come to this store, I don't like shopping anywhere else. There is no pressure to buy anything and the staff are particularly knowledgeable, helpful and available.read more

Australian paradise can be created by a visit to Zanthorrea. All plants are well grown and I have never lost one of the plants bought when transplanted into my garden because the pot had poor soil or been allowed to dry out. Keep up the great work Team. And the gift shop is well stocked also, a great place for Australian gifts 🌸read more

A nursery that really knows about plants! We wanted our new garden to be all natives and have a very shaded area we wanted to plant in. One of the staff walked around with us and showed us all our options while answer our questions. Amazing range, great display and very knowledgeable staff!read more

This has become a recent favourite. Specialising in natives, their stock is always very healthy and in wonderful condition. The staff are very friendly, helpful and have great advice. I drive out of my way to go to this place for tubestock and they have a play area for kids too. Best of all, the prices are line ball with the big green shed, which is a huge bonus.read more

This nursery is an exemplar for the highest standard of customer service. The staff are knowledgeable, helpful, kind and patient and there is always someone on hand to answer my countless questions. They obligingly put my name on a waitlist when something is out of stock and text when it comes in. I don’t live close but it well worth the drive.read more

A nursery is only as good as the worst plant on site. I thought they were all good so that makes it five stars.Not anything sub standard to be seen. No half price plant sales where disappointment often lays ahead for optimistic buyers.Helpful staff with knowledge and advice.We visited from Leeming and I imagine customers come from much further away to buy their plants. As well as mainly native species there are non natives, bedding plants and veg. The integral gardens are full of labelled plants to show what your potential plants will grow into.I challenge any visitor to leave without being tempted to buy something.read more

I go there so often but never thought to leave a review. It’s more than a garden centre. The amazing staff enthusiastically share their knowledge. But I must say it’s my go to place when I want to send gifts overseas. Fabulous gift ideas for young and old. My family in Ireland live what I send from Zanthorrea. Just live the place.read more

A definite place to visit if you are into native plants. It's a big nursery in term of space. They might not the most extensive number of plants but mind you they are specialising in native plants so plants selection is selective only to native. You do find some strays like succulents and cacti.The place has a cafe area to sit but doesn't seem to have someone running the cafe itself. It is just a very small section. Also has a playground and a section where you can walk and sit and just enjoy the greeneries.What I love about this place is they sell many garden decorations and pieces, but definitely check out their pots. Bought some and will definitely be back just for the pots alone!read more

A beautiful nursery, predominantly focused on Australian native plants. Everything is well set out, with plants grouped in different categories. The plants are very reasonably priced. They sell well established plants, as well as tube stock, seedlings, herbs and vegetables.Features also include a children's playground, public toilets, giftware, indoor plants, pots, soil and a sample garden. They even have pet chickens! The staff are friendly and can help to give you suggestions for your garden.read more

Love Zanthorrea....great choice of Natives. Helpful staff and just a beautiful garden feel which is inviting to wander around. We have ripped out a front lawn and slowly replanting as a native garden.

Zanthorrea Nursery is a family-owned garden centre, located in the hills of Perth, Western Australia.At Zanthorrea they specialise in Australian natives, which are among the world's most lovely and hardy plants.I relocated from Adelaide 5 mths ago & I have learnt that 60% of the wild flowers in WA can not be found anywhere else in the world.I was dragged to plant nurseries my whole childhood bit it’s funny, as now I remember it as a highlight, the adventure my sister & I had while our parents gathered for the coming season.Zanthorrea is a wonderland of natives, tropical, succulents & plantable produce. They have wonderful designed gardens & fish ponds to admire & the kids will love it! You will find pots galore, kids play equipment & chooks in a cage (ethical one that is) Coffee machine, ice cream & a gift shop that I could have emptied.Staff were knowledgeable & engaging when I had questions.With the drive that’s for sure!read more
