Melbourne's Best Nurseries

Our selection of the very best nurseries in Melbourne will come a bit of a surprise to many gardeners. Some of these you may have never heard about, but all are wonderful in their own right and all very different. One thing in common is that they are all owner operated.

We are not looking at the Garden Centers or one stop shops, but we are looking at 'Plantsmans' Nurseries. A place where you can buy the usual as well as the unusual.

• First we have Cloud Hill Nursery. And yes it is just outside of Melbourne in the Dandenong Ranges. Here you can find a large range of Trees and Shrubs, including Ornamental Trees and Fruit Trees. You can also find a retail nursery that sells plants from well known specialist growers including Antique Perennials, Flemings Nurseries and Yamina Collectors Nursery.
• We then go the other side of Melbourne and look at Roraima Nursery near Geelong. This is a paradise for lovers of cacti and succulents and many unusual plants, lots of Architectural plants, native plan ts as well as ferns and palm trees.
• Lets look at a specialist nursery that sells the widest range of Palm trees in Melbourne. It's aptly named 'The Palm Place'. Simply the best selection of Palm Trees and Cycads, and that one is in Mickleham.
• Of course we also need to go to Dicksonia Rare Plants, this nursery is run by the well known plantsman Stephan Ryan, the nursery is unique and Stephan knows more about plants than most.
• Finally we go back to the east of Melbourne to Gentiana Nursery, an absolutely wonderful collection of hardy perennials. Craig grows everything at the nursery and has a wonderful knowledge of hardy plants for cottage gardens. Check out the Bonsai as well.
