Established in 1963, Tharfield Nursery Ltd was formed to produce kiwifruit plants for the kiwifruit boom. The subsequent years brought the development of other new and exciting prospects including avocados, persimmons and macadamias.

During the mid-eighties and with the slump of the kiwifruit industry, Tharfield Nursery Ltd broadened its product range to include ornamental trees & shrubs and extended its market base to include garden centres & landscapers.

In 1997, Andrew and Fiona Boylan and Nick and Christina Hoogeveen purchased Tharfield Nursery Ltd and undertook major changes to develop the company into the specialist nursery it is today.

Tharfield Nursery Ltd is a licensed propagator for:
