What you should know about Awapuni Nurseries Ltd

Garden in Palmerston North, Flower Seeds in Palmerston North

As a bold and independent Dutch emigrant, Ton Ham left his native Holland in 1960 to come and settle in New Zealand. After meeting fellow Dutchman Henk Brookes, Ton went to work at a small business owned by Henk called Brookes Nurseries. Ton, who was eager at this stage to run a business of his own, negotiated with Henk and bought the nursery from him about 12 months later. In the mid 1990s Ton and his wife Lea sold the business to sons Paul and Henri, who are dedicated to continuing the high standard of quality and service set by their parents.
Since its inception as a two man company serving Palmerston North and its nearby regions, Awapuni Nurseries has grown substantially. It now employs more than 50 team members and relays the majority of its trade throughout New Zealand via leading chain stores. For those who want regular gardening information delivered right to their inbox, click here to check out our monthly electronic newsletter, Cultivated News. Over 200 different varieties of seedlings flowers, herbs, and vegetables are grown at Awapuni Nurseries in the Traditional Value and Pop n Grow ranges.
The only difference between the Pop n Grow and Traditional Value Bundle ranges are the way the seedlings are packaged for sale to you our customer. The Pop n Grow biodegradable packaging gives the seedlings’ delicate roots added protection making the range perfect for beginner and children gardeners, or anyone who simply wants to guarantee their seedlings will grow. The Traditional Value bundles are wrapped in recycled newspaper to keep the seedlings moist until planted and the cost down for you our customer. We put potting mix in the trays and then put them through our innovative seeding machine.
The seeds are sown with a drum vacuum feeder and then covered with a light covering of sawdust to keep them moist. Prior to their dispatch, we wrap all Traditional Value seedlings in newspaper. Awapuni Nurseries is the only seedling company in New Zealand that uses this unique method of packaging. That means if you see seedlings wrapped in newspaper you can be sure the seedlings are ours.
All plants have their own individual root system, which means they are quite literally guaranteed to grow
