Native grasses

Some plants just aren't well suited to the Australian environment. Vegetation evolves over millions of years to specific geographic conditions. Getting very heat-adverse grasses to thrive in a hot Australian summer can be quite the task!

But Australia's native grasses, which grew here and have adapted to the climate, are perfectly suited to our local light, temperatures, and soils. Of course, Australia possesses a diverse and varied landscape, so talk with one of our qualified staff members to find out which would work best in your garden.

Absolutely! Our delivery service is second to none, and we can service any address in the Melbourne metropolitan region. It has never been easier to buy Australian native grasses online. In some cases, depending on availability and when you call, we can even organise same-day delivery. Plus, with no minimum or maximum order, there's no job too big or small for our delivery team.

And we don't just deliver native grasses. From plants and tools to rocks and sand, we can deliver just about anything you need for a gardening or landscaping task.

Cutting back ornamental grasses can really help them to thrive. The best time of year to trim and prune the grasses will vary depending on the species you're working with. Some grasses only need to be pruned back a little, while others benefit from more intense trimming.

Our team know all about maintaining and looking after our different varieties of native grasses. You can speak to our friendly team in one of our stores, or contact us online for more information.

Native grasses are well acclimatised to Australian conditions. In fact, sometimes they can get a little too acclimatised! With a little care and attention, you can stop your native grasses from taking over your garden. You can dig out sections of roots, dig up clumps of native grass, and use a shovel to cut through the crown. Then trim unwanted sections with sheers as you would any other plant in the garden.
