Native Plants are Coming Home to Warrandyte

Kuranga Native Nursery

Native Plants are Coming Home to Warrandyte.

Kuranga Native Nursery is a family-owned and operated business with over 40 years of experience in growing and retailing Australian native plants. We are passionate about their vital role in healthy ecosystems and creating beautiful natural landscapes. Our mission is to help create natural gardens that support birds, insects, and wildlife, backed by our commitment to providing practical, friendly, and knowledgeable advice.

Kuranga stocks the largest range of Australian native plants in the country. We pride ourselves on plant quality and diversity, growing approximately 70% of our stock ourselves to ensure they thrive in local conditions.

We understand the significance of the Beasley’s Nursery site, which Kuranga Native Nursery has now acquired. The Beasley’s Family has been an integral part of the community for generations, and we wish to acknowledge their enduring legacy they have built over many years and where countless gardening journeys began.

We know that change can be unsettling, especially when a beloved business transitions. Our hope is that this new chapter will infuse the well-known site with fresh life.

This project is personal to us, Ben is a Warrandyte local, having grown up here and attended Warrandyte Primary School, and his immediate family still resides in the area. Returning to Warrandyte to grow Kuranga’s next chapter truly feels like coming home, and we are committed to being a genuine, long-term part of this community.

Kuranga Warrandyte will be a destination for all who love plants, nature, and the surrounding landscape whether you are an experienced gardener or just beginning your journey.

  • Expert horticulturalists and valuable resources for gardeners
  • Garden consultations
  • New cafe with seasonal menu, featuring bush food flavours
  • Curated gift shop featuring local and Australian designers and makers

We look forward to sharing our progress and welcoming you to Kuranga’s future home at this special site.

Ben and Alexa Clark
