I received an order last week and am so happy with it that I have just made another order. The plants are strong and healthy and the service prompt and easy to order. Thank you for your great service.

Patricia Edwards

Holly has been so helpful, she has been great in sending us tree photos, hole dimensions and upgrading our order with new stock arriving, very happy with the prompt replies and great service we have received – thank you

Eddie C

Could not recommend enough - I placed quite a large order and needed it delivered on a particular day. Holly was extremely helpful in getting that organised and even assisted with a last minute plant swap.

Harry Hart

I bought a Lilly Pilly from here and 100% will be buying from these guys again. Although the first tree didn’t look good within the first week, the team were so helpful and provided great service with the 30 day guarantee.

Sophie Robertson

Extremely impressed with the easy to navigate website, huge selection of plants but best of all were the prices. As we were looking to buy bulk Lilly Pilly’s for a hedge the discounts available were fantastic for a 10 pack.

Jessica Roe

We've used Brisbane Plant Nursery for a few of our projects over the past year and have been impressed with the quality of stock and the communication of any updates for our orders.

How to Care for Your White Michelia

The White Michelia is both beautiful and resilient, requiring thoughtful care to thrive in your garden. Follow these tips to ensure its health and vitality:

Light Requirements

The White Michelia flourishes in full sun to part shade. For optimal flowering, provide it with ample sunlight while ensuring some protection from intense afternoon sun in warmer climates.

Watering Schedule

This tree prefers moderate to high water levels. Keep the soil consistently moist but well-draining, especially during the growing season and hot weather. Mulching around the base can help retain moisture and regulate soil temperature.

Soil Preferences

Plant in nutrient-rich, well-draining soil. Incorporate organic matter such as compost to improve soil quality and support healthy root development. The White Michelia thrives in slightly acidic to neutral soil.

Fertilising

Feed your tree with a balanced, slow-release fertiliser during the growing season (spring and summer). This encourages lush foliage and abundant flowering. For best results, choose a fertiliser designed for flowering trees.

Pruning and Maintenance

Prune lightly after flowering to maintain its shape and encourage healthy growth. Remove any dead or damaged branches to keep the tree looking fresh and vibrant. Avoid heavy pruning, as this may reduce flowering in the following season.
