Plant Growers Australia (PGA) is an industry accredited, innovative wholesale nursery occupying 12 acres approximately 40km east of Melbourne, where it has been operating since 1981.
PGA is well known for its regular introduction of new and interesting varieties. Bringing new plants to the gardening public has always been an important part of the business. Throughout the history of the company well trialled, new and exciting plants have been released. Many of these have been carefully selected and imported through our AQIS approved Quarantine facility, from other parts of the world which have similar growing conditions of heat and low water tolerance.

Plant breeding has been a focus of the nursery for more than 20 years. Dedicated facilities now allow us to use the best genetics from Australia and around the world to develop superior, great performing garden plants. Varieties like the Lavinnova® Lavenders and Moon® Convolvulus series have since been exported to the world and now have international success.

Over 95% of our plants are propagated onsite. Being able to have total quality control over our plant production meant the investment in a state of the art propagation facility in 2004. The success of this has now led PGA to provide other wholesale growers with young plants for their own production.
PGA's product range of over 300 varieties, both native and exotic, is constantly evolving and targeted at providing well presented, high quality and successful plants for the enjoyment of both the home gardener and professional landscaper alike.
