A great day out: Good food & coffee, amazing plants plus free information and entertainment
Posted by Sandra on 11th Jul 2019
If you've never been then make this your first year to experience the Queensland Garden Expo at Nambour.
Gates to the Nambour Showgrounds open at 8am each day and close at 5pm (4pm on Sunday). You'll be amazed at the range of displays, talks & demonstrations, plant sales, entertainment and products.
Our Golden Valley Nursery site at the Expo has over 100 different types of plants, ranging from unusual warm climate bulbs through to indoor plants and of course Clivias and Strelitzias. So many of the plants are almost impossible to find in retail stores but all of them perform brilliantly in our climate.
If you are able to make the trip to Nambour on Friday 12th, Saturday 13th or Sunday 14th July we'd love to see you and we know you'll have a memorable day out and return home with beautiful plants and loads of inspiration for your garden.

One hundred shades of orange
We were attending the Queensland Garden Expo earlier in the year when a customer looked at one of our clivias and remarked, "Oh yes, I've got the orange one".With Clivias, there's such a diversity of flower shapes, sizes, shades and centre colours, among other things that there really is no "orange one".I took the photo [...]
