Coochiemudlo Native Nursery

Coochiemudlo Island
Native Plant Nursery

~ Open Tuesday mornings 9 to 11 ~

We acknowledge the Quandamooka people, the traditional owners of the land on which our nursery is located. We pay respect to their culture and to Elders past and present.

The Christmas markets raffle

We will be selling plants and raffle tickets at the Christmas markets. Your support means that we can continue to provide free plants to our environmental groups for their bush regeneration work.

Christmas market plants

Bird, Bee and Butterfly Bundles

We have bundles of bird, bee and butterfly attracting plants for sale at the special Christmas market price of $10 for a bundle of four plants.

The Nursery has two of these rare Phaius australis orchids for sale ($25.00 each). Our plants are not yet flowering but they are spectacular when they do! We have propagated them from specimens that were originally bought from a community nursery by one of our members. They have not been taken from the wild.

For just $3 you can buy a piece of Island history at the Christmas markets. These pretty little plants, Trachymene incisa (Native parsnip), were once common on the Island but are now rare. As well as the pretty white flowers and lacy leaves, the plants have long edible roots that gives them their common name.
