Our Plants
A Huge Range.
Chosen for Here.
We stock a wide range of plants — natives, roses, succulents, seedlings, shrubs, fruit trees, ornamental grasses, and established advanced trees. Whatever stage your garden is at, whatever your budget, there's something here for you.
The difference at Rhimahden is that every plant in our nursery has been considered for the Swan Hill region. The Mallee is a specific kind of country — hot, dry summers, cold winters, sandy soils, and in many gardens, real salinity challenges. We source from local growers and the best nurseries in Victoria, so the plants that come to you are acclimatised and ready.
Peta-Lyn and John have been growing in this country for over 40 years. When they recommend a plant, they're speaking from their own garden — not a catalogue.
Growing in the Mallee
What your plants have to deal with here.
Hot, Dry Summers
Temperatures regularly above 40°C. Plants need to be heat-tolerant, not just drought-hardy.
Cold Winters & Frost
Ground frosts are common through June and July. Frost hardiness is non-negotiable for anything permanent.
Saline Soils
Salinity affects a significant portion of gardens across the Swan Hill region. We know which plants handle it.
Low Rainfall
Swan Hill averages around 320mm per year. Drought tolerance isn't a bonus feature — it's essential.
