It’s all go at local nursery
With the southern motorway extension
well underway, businesses like Southern
Woods Nursery which originally fronted
onto Main South Road have had some
major changes.
Southern Woods is undergoing a
complete makeover. Building work has
started on their new garden centre and
they have been replanting their arboretums
and display gardens with all on target for
their grand new garden centre opening in
spring.
Until then, Southern Woods can be
found on their existing site via their new
main entrance off Robinsons Road, just
around the corner from Main South Road.
With deciduous trees dormant in winter
this is a good time to plant these. Southern
Woods have a great selection of fruit and
specimen trees that will complement
established gardens or add height to newly
landscaped areas. Their extensive selection
of field grown trees are a great planting
option this winter, see the range in-store or
online.
Your garden focus at this time of year may
be cleaning up and Southern Woods have
quality tools to help with the job, including
Japanese made secateurs and pruning saws,
and Italian loppers.
Tidying the garden may also require
supplies and Southern Woods have bags of
potting mix, compost, stakes, tree webbing,
ties, and fruit tree sprays along with liquid
seaweed spray for applying early spring to

trees) against late frosts.
If wanting colour in the garden in the
colder months, drop by Southern Woods to
check out their winter flowering plants and

colours. They also have a massive selection
of hardy Canterbury grown natives, offer
on-site consultations and gift vouchers.
