Excellent selection of plants with plenty of each variety. Staff are friendly and helpful. Good native selection. Plants are laid out sensibly and with easy access. Cheaper than most plant stores.
Last Sunday was the first time I had been to Awa Nursery, heard about them being good, but had been put off with the 50 minute commute to get there. Boy was I glad I went, the premises was very organized compared to other more local nurseries. Although my wife and I had a vague description list and photos of what we wanted, I was nervous to what I was going to end up leaving with. That's when I met one of the employees there called Tristan, absolute legend , he walked around with us, gave us recommendations and went over and above to find the plants we needed from our vague descriptions. He was knowledgeable and made the experience of parting with over $1000 for plants fun and a painless experience. We'll be back!
Great place with a large selection of native and non native plants.
Great nursery to buy bulk or single! Lots of well grown plants can’t go wrong. Highly recommended to visit.
Good value when compared to other nurseries. Alley and Nathan were very helpful, and we will shop here again.
A beautiful, large nursery centre with a range of various different plants and trees. I had visited many other nurseries to which I was turned away as I was a member of public, and not a contractor or retailor - however I was allowed to buy at Awa Nursery. I was looking between 40-50 of the same plant, and all the other garden centres only stocked a few at a time. Awa nursery has the benefits of affordable nursery prices, that also sells to members of the public such as myself. I was able to choose from a variety of different types of plants, and they had sufficient stock. The website was also very good it had lots of information about each plant they sell. To the bad reviews pointing to bad customer service - my advice is, is that if you need someone to hold your hand throughout the entire process, and do all the thinking for you, then go to a chain garden centre. I'm a plant novis, and everytime I saw something that caught my eye I'd google the species and find out more about it. There is also a label on every plant that states its purpose, the length and width to which it will grow, and also growing instructions. I'm not sure what else you will want - but Google can help. Overall the customer service was brilliant and more than what I expected. They even helped load the plants into the car which was kind of them. I will definitely be back when I'm ready to tackle further landscaping projects.
I love this place! Huge variety of plants, all well taken care of, tidy, clean and big. I've been here twice for plants now, and it won't be my last time here. Always looking for natives to grow. Still got more plants I need to put in my garden ☺️ always a lovely site to visit!
