Our Staff
Hi! I'm Natalie!
I'm the new owner of the nursery and I'm so excited to be here.
I'm an ecologist, conservation advocate, and passionate supporter of urban biodiversity and habitat restoration. I deeply believe in the power of native plants to create safe havens for birds, frogs, pollinators, and other wildlife—something I know many of our customers care about too.
I'm also the co-founder of Backyards for Biodiversity, a not-for-profit organisation dedicated to inspiring and educating people about bringing nature back into our urban landscapes. Visit the website for plenty of free resources to help you create a thriving habitat in your own backyard.
I’m Ella!
I have always had a love of plants. After school I did a stint working in the Big Scrub Rainforest in Northern NSW learning the weeds and restoring the native species. I then went on to do my apprenticeship in Horticulture at The Royal Botanical Gardens Sydney. I had the opportunity to work with a large variety of plants and gardens including the nursery. My passion is native Australian plants. Including local provenance plants. I love bushwalking and observing all the local flora and fauna.
I’m Maureen!
My affiliation with the Wildflower Place started in 2005 when Bronwyn and I joined Nola as partners .Over the years the Nursery grew as more people became interested in Australian native plants and flowers . I’ve loved my time surrounded by natives but particularly native flowers! I find them bold, colourful and long lasting with every arrangement taking a different shape and form. My favourite arrangement is fresh flower wreaths. You'll find me in the nursery on Fridays creating unique floral arrangements every week.
I’m excited to be working with Natalie and to watch the nursery take on another new life, all whilst being able to meet new faces and also staying connected to our longtime customers of over 20 years
