ALL ABOUT UTOPIA PALMS AND CYCADS WHOLESALE NURSERY. |
Utopia Palms and Cycads Wholesale Nursery is tucked away in it's own little valley of 24 acres, which is situated approximately 1 1/2 hours drive from the international airport - 100 kms north of Brisbane on the Sunshine Coast in Queensland, Australia. The property is facing north east, 20km from the coast from the coastal town of Coolum Beach - approx 10 minutes drive. We have ocean views that look out north to Double Island Point north of noosa and Mount Cooroora then East to Mount Coolum and West to Mount Eerwha just north of Yandina. In a subtropical climate we receive an average rainfall of about 1700 mm. Last years annual rainfall was down on our average. But this year is looking promising. We do not irrigate our gardens and rely on heavy mulching. Our planet is producing an ever changing climate and unpredictable weather, we believe we should all approach gardening in a different light. Utopia Palms and Cycad is unlike regular wholesale nurseries who water 3 times a day 7 days a week and these plants are reliant on this watering program to survive. Our stock is much more hardy than regular nursery plants because of our watering program, a heavier medium plus a few other factors make our plants require less water and therefore adjust more readily to the landscape situation. We only water once a week over winter and twice and up to 3 times a week over summer when it is very hot. Summer temperatures reach 43.C Winter minimum around 4.C Utopia Palms and Cycads Wholesale Nursery gardens have been slowly built up over the past 21 years to include many rare plants - palms - cycads - orchids - bromeliads - tillandsia's - alocia's - heliconia's - gingers - costus - host of native trees and exotic flowering trees tropical plants ..................... a real tropical paradise. Utopia Palms and Cycads Wholesale Nursery started out with an over grown property of 8 acres with groundsel, lantana, molasses grass all as tall as 4 metres.... a real jungle of weeds. Over the century our farm previously was logged for timber when they first settled in queensland - then grazing for cattle - banana farm - sugar cane farm - orchard for citrus. When we purchased it was a dream undiscovered and very overgrown with a few remnant trees of eucalyptus - box, turpentine, ghost gums and black wattle and enough rock to give us a look in with The Great Wall of China. Over the years we have tamed that jungle of weeds and re vegetated with exotic and tropical species of all sorts to turn our Utopia into the oasis it is today. We work with a small labour force consisting of the three of us Clayton, Teresa and presently one employee. [For most part just the two of us.] So sometimes we are drawn in many different directions to achieve our work load. The unlevel ground makes alot of the work required to be manual labour, the mulching is very time consuming. After a few years, we purchased the adjoining property of 16 acres to allow us to grow. Utopia Palms and Cycads Wholesale Nursery is situated in a valley, all roads, paths and level areas have had to be cut in and retained with rock walls - over 6000 m of rock walls run through and cris cross the property. We have covered now approximately 10 acres in gardens with no grassed areas. We have developed our own microclimate and able to grow a variety of temperate, subtropical and tropical plants. In addition to the nursery of 2 acres, the gardens cover around 10 acres, we have approximately 4 acres of natural bush land, and approximately 8 acres of grazing land for a small herd of boer goats. Utopia Palms and Cycads Wholesale Nursery intends to reclaim some of this grazing area for more gardens in the future - yet still have some grazing area to maintain a fire break for us. Utopia Palms and Cycads Wholesale Nursery supply a wide range of landscaping plants to include many rare plants - palms - cycads - orchids - bromeliads - tillandsia's - alocia's - heliconia's - gingers - costus - tropical plants ..................... a real tropical paradise.
