GRAFTED GUMS

Botanix Plant Supply are specialist growers of stock from Touch of Class Plants® and a large range of grafted corymbia's and eucalypts' from the Graftmasters^TM range. They grow in a range of pot sizes including 30cm, 40cm, 70L tubs and 150L bags for specimen plantings. These trees are hand grafted onto specially selected rootstocks which limits mature size, guarantees flower colour and form and enables planting in a wide range of conditions.

Botanix are specialists in the production of semi-advanced grafted gums from the Graftmasters^TM range. These are premium products, suitable as street trees or for use in residential or commercial landscapes. Grown at the spacious Carrum Downs site they develop good callipers and branching with strong grafts.

Over the last few years many streetscapes, developments and home gardens are now utilising grey water for irrigation; Botanix stock performs well under these conditions as it is already accustomed to recycled water. The nursery is irrigated with 100% recycled water sourced from the Eastern Treatment Plant. Growing stock using this water means there is less transplant shock when the trees are installed and a recycled water irrigation program started.

Below is a small selection of the varieties grown.
