About the Nursery and related services

The APACE Revegetation Nursery specialises in the propagation and supply of plant species indigenous to the Swan Coastal Plain and the Darling Range. Plants from the nursery are used in revegetation and landscaping projects throughout the Perth metropolitan region. The nursery is accredited with the Nursery Industry Association of WA and all stock is grown under strict hygienic conditions. Each year the nursery produces more than a quarter of a million plants and provides a selection of two hundred and fifty different species that are generally unavailable elsewhere. The APACE nursery was the first West Australian nursery to bring into cultivation a range of common rush and sedge species for wetlands revegetation projects.

Consultancy services are provided in revegetation design and site rehabilitation, including species selection, remedial works, weed eradication and other management issues. Flora and fauna surveys, where required, are also conducted. Clients have included government departments, local government, schools and community groups.

APACE provides a comprehensive project management and implementation service. We have been involved in project management of many large-scale revegetation projects. We can offer services in project design, seed collection, planting, fencing and follow-up maintenance works. We also undertake a variety of construction projects. Previous projects have included bird hides, boardwalks and dunal fencing.

APACE also offers two special courses to assist people with revegetation - "Introduction to Bush Regeneration" and "Seed Collection of West Australian Native Plants". Both courses include practical components and provide an excellent introduction to bush regeneration techniques and practices.

APACE is accredited to conduct TAFE horticultural subjects Plant Propagation, Horticultural Safety, Horticultural Construction, Plant Cultural Practices, Plant Identification and Nursery Practices.
