Natives for Alpine Conditions
Discover the beauty and resilience of New Zealand’s high country with our range of Native Alpine Plants. Grown to thrive in harsh, exposed conditions, these hardy species bring unique texture, colour, and charm to rock gardens, alpine landscapes, and low-maintenance plantings. From compact shrubs to ground-hugging herbaceous plants, NZ alpine natives are naturally adapted to cold, wind, and poor soils—making them tough, low-water options that still deliver striking visual appeal. Perfect for adding a touch of the mountains to your own backyard.
