Recently opened, Nu Grow is huge, local, they have a great range and the staff seem to be experts rather than fill ins with no idea. I called in to grab some soil because was attempting to re-pot a plant and ended up browsing around which was surprisingly enjoyable. It definitely has a warehouse feel but it is quite bright and open and earthy. They have soil, plants, pavers, hardware plus heaps more. In short, they seemed to have everything you could need for your garden or for landscaping.

You don't have to be a gardener to enjoy this place. Yes, they have a lot of bargain plants for sale but it's just like visiting a botanical garden. The plants are not your standard garden centre range but are cultivated exoticas - once I even saw a thousand dollar Gingko Biloba tree! The owners are clearly artists because they have giant ceramic sculptures incorporated into the landscape. Some are kitschy, some are a bit naughty but all show the owners have a sense of humour. And just when you think things can't get any odder, you run into their collection of beautiful pheasants. I told my sister about this place and she took her two kids. My nephew had a ball running around the maze like set up, weaving between trees, ducking under giant ferns, not knowing what plant, animal or sculpture will pop up around the corner. I could spend hours exploring this place and the owners are so good natured, they probably wouldn't mind. NB: This nursery is a bit hard to find. There is a sign on Beaudesert Road but it comes up very quickly so you may find yourself doing several u-turns. There's plenty of parking on site though once you eventually find it.

What a great nursery! I always find something new and interesting!

No question is too dumb and their advise is based on years of experience.....they can show you their results e.g. lotus plants which I have killed MANY...now flowering and strong and healthy. I recently took a friend from interstate to the "quirky nursery" and with over 30 years of running an orchard, working in a nursery and cultivating all sorts of amazing plants herself), she loved TempleX . She was excited to find such a huge variety of plants (some she had not seen for years) and found the owners to be very open and lovely people. Other friends (more local) have also found the place to be a treasure and not one negative comment! I just wish they had a coffee shop are there are some lovely spots to sit. This venue is ideal for children too with fish, poultry and lots of trees. There is also a snake story, and the owners are very good with visiting children. But one of the big attractions is the funky art ...odd bits of driftwood, statues and plants have been turned into art! Great place and take your friends too, they'll love it!
