4.8 / 5.0

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 Japanese Spindle

The Japanese Spindle is easy to care for and thrives in a variety of conditions. Follow these tips to ensure it remains healthy and vibrant:

Light Requirements

This shrub thrives in full sun to part shade. For optimal growth and foliage color, choose a location that provides at least a few hours of sunlight each day.

Watering Schedule

The Japanese Spindle prefers medium watering requirements. Keep the soil consistently moist during the establishment phase, then reduce watering once the plant is established. Avoid waterlogging by ensuring proper drainage.

Soil Preferences

Plant in well-draining soil enriched with organic matter. While it tolerates a range of soil types, a nutrient-rich environment will encourage healthy growth and vibrant foliage.

Pruning and Maintenance

Minimal pruning is required, but light trimming in late winter or early spring helps maintain its dense, upright form. Remove any damaged or yellowing leaves to keep the plant looking fresh and tidy.

Fertilising

Apply a balanced, slow-release fertiliser in spring to support growth and maintain vibrant foliage. Repeat fertilisation in mid-summer if desired.

Temperature and Hardiness

This hardy shrub tolerates a range of climates but performs best in temperate regions. Protect it from severe frost, which may damage its foliage.
