Talisman Nurseries (NZ native plants)

Specialists in New Zealand Native Plants Pop by during our opening hours Fri - Sat 10am-4pm or make an appointment Mon-Thurs.

Talisman Nursery specialises in the propagation and care of New Zealand native plants, with an emphasis on hard to find species and those useful for restoration projects in the Kapiti Coast area. With over 200 species currently available for purchase, and more being added all the time, we have one of the most diverse range of native plants anywhere in the greater Wellington Region.

This pic is a great reminder why we plant gardens with natives. And a double reminder that Pseudopanax species are great garden plants that produce masses of fruit that become ripe in winter. Perfect for attracting kereru into your garden!

Perfect time to plant to make the most of current soil moisture....particularly if you are on free-draining coastal soils.

Kia ora everyone. Autumn has arrived so the very best time to start planting native plants. Talisman Nursery is back to its normal opening hours of Friday and Saturday 10am to 4pm....or by appointment.

As we move into the summer months Talisman Nursery will move into a period of 'open by appointment only'.

If you would like to purchase plants over the next few months we would love to see you, but please ring ahead.

We would like to thank all those who have visited our nursery in 2025 and wish you all a happy summer and festive season.

I am always on the lookout for good public gardens that use native plants well.

So here is a shoutout to Rotorua City Council and their awesome plantings at Kuirau Park thermal gardens. Simple but nice😎

A long weekend is a good time to pick up a few plants and do a bit of planting. Talisman Nursery is open Friday and Saturday during Matariki.

Its still Autumn and the perfect time to get lots of plants in the ground and to make the most of the cooler months and abundant soil moisture.

Why not add some colour or fragrance to your Autumn garden with plants like Olearia avicenniifolia, O. angulata, O. paniculata or one of the Autumn flowering manuka. Even the fruit of the native passionfruit can add some colour late in the season.

Talisman Nursery has recently taken up the opportunity to become part of the community who sponsor the Kapiti Hockey Turf. This is an awesome facility that not only provides one of the best hockey turfs in Wellington, is home to the Kapiti Hockey Club, but is also a great facility that can be used by the wider community for events and functions.

Feel free to get in touch and if you need any native plants over this time. Otherwise we would like to wish you all a relaxing festive season.

Nga mihi, Stephen and Karen
