Spring into Summer: Fresh Trees, Fresh Season

September 7, 2026

SPRING INTO SUMMER HAS ARRIVED

Longer days and rising soil temperatures signal one of the strongest planting windows of the year. Our new Spring into Summer Catalogue is now live, bringing together the full Easy Big Trees collection for 2026–2027.

This edition reflects the span of our nursery, home to one of the South Island’s largest selections of advanced grade trees grown in rich Southland soil. You’ll find refreshed categories, clearer navigation and a standout new feature: Architectural Plants chosen for sculptural form, texture and design impact in contemporary landscapes.

“Spring offers a strong window for establishment, and early Summer warmth
supports steady root development and healthy canopy growth.”

Whether you’re planning a fresh landscape, adding structure or selecting trees for future seasonal interest, the catalogue is designed to help you choose the right species for your site and purpose.
