Affiliate Nursery Registry

Our Vetted Network of Australian Garden Retailers

To make our botanical encyclopedia as useful as possible, we don't just tell you how to care for plants; we also help you find where to buy them. In our "Local Availability" widgets, we link to verified Australian nurseries.

We are selective about the retailers we include in this registry. Every nursery must meet strict standards of plant quality, customer service, and reliable transit.

Our Partner Retailers

We integrate product listings, price estimates, and stock checks from reputable retail outlets, including:

  • Bunnings Warehouse:Australia's largest home improvement and outdoor living retailer, offering accessible plants nationwide with their Perfect Match plant guarantee.
  • Flower Power: A leading garden center network across New South Wales, highly respected for high-quality stock and expert horticultural staff.
  • Specialist Boutique Nurseries: Select online mail-order nurseries specializing in rare aroids, collector indoor foliage, or local Australian natives.

Our Vetting Criteria

Before we link to any retail nursery, we evaluate their operations against three key standards:

  1. Horticultural Quality: Plants must be grown in professional conditions, treated for pests, and delivered with healthy, established root systems.
  2. Secure Botanical Shipping: For online orders, nurseries must use specially designed cardboard sleeves, straw packings, or plastic clamps to prevent soil spillage and stem breakage during transit.
  3. Customer Protection & Guarantees: Partners must offer clear refund or replacement policies for plants that are damaged in transit or fail to survive initial acclimation due to nursery faults.

Our Affiliate Pledge

We make a simple, three-part pledge to our readers:

  • Zero Extra Cost: Using our referral links never adds a surcharge. The price is identical to what you would pay by searching their site directly.
  • Complete Independence: We write care guides based on horticultural science, not partner commission rates. If a plant is finicky or prone to pests, we will say so.
  • Honest Recommendations: We only link to stores we would (and do!) shop at ourselves.
