native wetland plants
Native wetland plants play a crucial role in New Zealand’s ecosystems, providing habitat for wildlife, helping manage water quality, and supporting biodiversity. If you’re looking to restore a wetland, create a wildlife-friendly garden, or stabilize a pond margin, choosing the right native wetland plants is essential. These species thrive in moist soils and can handle periodic flooding, making them perfect for both natural wetlands and constructed water features. At our nursery, we offer a range of robust, locally-sourced wetland species that will bring your landscape to life while supporting environmental health.
Baumea articulata
Baumea articulata, commonly known as the Jointed Twig Rush, is an attractive, NZ native grass grown for its aesthetics and ability to handle and colonise extremely wet soils. It forms a dense sward as it grows to 1.5 m tall, which provides an excellent habitat for frogs and water birds.
