Product Catalogue


Our most advanced trees are in a 160 litre bag, some species measuring up to six metres.  These trees are excellent for maximum impact.  They make ideal street trees, car park trees, shade, screen and shelter trees. These trees make any landscape or townscape look established.

In the last eight years we have put a lot of effort into producing large numbers of varieties in a 45 litre grade.  These trees are still an advanced tree and are in the 2.5 - 3.5 metre height range.  These trees are an excellent choice for anyone on a budget who still wants the established effect.

Our smallest grade of tree is the PB40 grade.  These trees are a fantastic option for the budget conscious.  All these trees are 1.5 - 2.5 metres.  They are a great option for the home gardener, they are easy to transport and plant and still give great visual pleasure. 

The price of the trees is not included in this catalogue as grades, sizes, and availablity are subject to change regularly.  However, all our prices include GST.  Please feel free to enquire about trade rates or quantity discount.
