PLEASE NOTE WE STOP SENDING PLANTS OUT FROM MID OCTOBER AND WILL RESUME AGAIN MAY 2013.
Nutshell Perennial Plant Nursery is owned and operated by Emma and James Baldry. We are located at Wallendbeen, between Cootamundra and Harden in the South West Slopes of NSW.
All our plants are field grown in an east facing paddock on our farm and sold bare rooted. We have a huge variation in climate ranging from – 5 C° to the occasional low 40 C°. These factors allow us to supply large, well developed and vigorous specimens that can cope with a variety of situations.
The plants are lifted in the cooler months between April to the end of September after a full season’s growth and then sent to you. Our operation is seasonal so we do not have plants available all the time however we are happy to take orders throughout the year.
We have some of the most beautiful perennials that can be grown in Australia. Included are plants that will be happy in a variety of situations, ranging from ones that will thrive in dry conditions to softer more thirsty varieties. We have indicated in the Catalogue the various requirements of the plants.
This year we have around 265 cultivars available. Please do not hesitate to be in contact should you wish for us to grow of some of your favourite perennials that might not be currently in our collection.
Nursery Opening times
The best time to visit the nursery is from end of January to March when it is in full bloom. This is the perfect time to see for yourself which plants you love the best. We can take your order and plants can be reserved until the nominated pickup, or posting date after April. It is essential to phone before arriving to make sure we are here to show you around.
