AUSTRALIAN NATIVE NURSERY PERTH
Zanthorrea Specialises In Australian Plants
Australian native plants are well known for their unique beauty. Long neglected as garden plants in Western Australia, they have had a recent surge in popularity as water-wise alternatives to traditional garden plants. Plant breeders, both in Australia and overseas are developing cultivars and hybrids with wide appeal. As well as looking spectacular in the contemporary or bush garden, our local flora is highly attractive to birds and other native animals.
All the plants we grow on site are potted on by hand and our nursery meets Both NIASA (Nursery Industry Accreditation Scheme Australia) and SGA (Sustainable Gardening Australia) standards.

Lomandra 'Nyalla'
A fantastic low maintenance addition to any garden with its graceful, arching, strappy, foliage. It creates a lovely texture and movement contrast in garden beds, pots, borders and looks great mass planted for a meadow effect. Hardy in most positions in full sun or part shade in free draining soil. Frost and drought hardy once established
70cm H x 70cm W
Grevillea 'Moonlight'
A fantastic large grevillea which is adaptable, reliable and flowers all year, what more could you want?! Dark green leaves show off the creamy coloured flowers produced in clusters on the ends of the branches. Flowers will attract nectar feeding birds to your garden and the dense branching helps to create habitat and nesting sites. Use as a screen, as a backdrop of native garden beds, a feature in the middle of a garden bed, or under-prune to form an attractive small tree. Best in full sun, but will tolerate part shade. Plant in free draining soil. Prune behind spent flowers to encourage a tidier look and promote more flowers.

Chamelaucium 'Purple Pride'
An open large shrub prized for its vibrant purple flower displays in spring and aromatic foliage. Geraldton wax thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, and it is drought-tolerant once established, perfect for low-maintenance gardens. Regular light pruning after flowering encourages bushier growth and more prolific blooms, while its striking colour and long-lasting flowers make it perfect for cut flower arrangements. A great choice for low water, native gardens, light screening and mixed garden beds.

Conostylis candicans
Commonly known as the Grey Cottonhead, Conostylis candicans is a striking Australian native that brightens gardens with its soft, silvery-grey foliage and vibrant yellow flowers in spring and early summer. This low-growing, clumping plant is ideal for borders, rockeries, or as a feature in native garden beds. It thrives in full sun to part shade and prefers well-drained soil, making it perfect for a range of garden conditions, including coastal areas. Hardy, drought-tolerant, and frost-resistant, Conostylis candicans requires minimal maintenance—occasional pruning of old foliage and flower spikes helps maintain its shape and encourages new growth. This compact, resilient plant is a beautiful and practical choice for adding year-round texture and seasonal colour to any landscape.
