Mother Earth Nursery Point Clare

Mother Earth Nursery Point Clare Acorn Garden Centre is now Mother Earth Nursery. Come in and see the changes The closure of the gallery made way for a quaint plant nursery and Acorn was born.

A little of Acorn History
Acorn Garden Centre has been trading at Point Clare since 1975. The large Barn-style building has an interesting past, originally built and used as a plasterboard factory. In the 70’s the building was converted and used as an art and gift gallery with some plants being grown on site and sold as well. There’s even been a fully equipped aquarium department, with over 40 fish tanks, featuring more than one hundred species of temperate and tropical fish. Over the years just like a growing tree Acorn became larger, spreading its branches and settling its roots deep in the local community. In 2008 new owners brought fresh ideas, high standards and progress to the nursery, rekindling the interest of local gardeners. The re-introduction of the Gift Gallery with its quirky and well presented displays has seen it become a destination of its own right. The owners and staff settled in quickly and have become greatly valued amongst the loyal patrons. In 2011 Acorn won a national online competition and was voted Austraflora Retail Garden Centre of the Year. In 2012 PlantsPlus recognized Acorn with the following awards: Highest Greenlife Sales Growth NSW and Highest Overall Growth NSW, a fantastic achievement within the 27 members of the NSW PlantsPlus group. Most recently in 2013 Acorn was placed in the top three finalists at the PlantsPlus Garden Centre of the Year NSW Awards Gala Event. Acorn has been servicing the Central Coast with plants, advice and garden supplies for over 40 years. It is an award winning business, loved by many local gardeners. We invite you to visit us and enjoy the garden centre.

🌸RARE PINK FLANNEL FlOWERS🌸
Only available this Saturday at the Mother Earth Nursery Plant fair this weekend!
Don’t Miss Out! Only $15 ea.

Saturday 10th October. At Eden Gardens , Maquarie Park.

We will have our first and possibly only plants this year of the rare native pink flannel flower Actinotus forsythii at our plant fair this Saturday.

This rare little darling of the plant world only appears after bushfires when the conditions are just right. Their seeds lay dormant, sometimes for decades, waiting for the right conditions. Fire, smoke, season, and rain. And when things line up correctly, boy do they put on a show!

Native to Eastern Australia, from the Blue Mountains to North Eastern Victoria. They appear on mass. And flower profusely for a few short years, before eventually fading away, for another few decades.

So come down to our plant fair! For the opportunity to get your hands 🙌 on one of these little beauties. 🌸🌸🌸

Can’t wait to see you there!

Look at this Stunner! 😎 A Lilac Grevillea!
This very rare and very special plant is Grevillea shiressii Gosford Glory. A threatened species!

Our first release this year of Grevillea shiressii Gosford Glory will be at the Mother Earth Nursery Plant Fair & Speakers Event!
Saturday October the 10th! Don’t miss out!

We have grown a small number of plants for 2026. And can’t wait to share them with our fellow gardeners.

Once common to a large area in NSW. It is now sadly only found naturally in two small localities near Gosford. It flowers from Winter through summer. The small, but beautiful flowers vary in colour from blue grey to mauve purple, lipped with green. And later fade to a translucent creamy colour. It is a fantastic grevillea thriving in Part Shade and even tolerating some quite shady positions. Naturally it grows along creek beds in damp positions, but it has been proven to be very drought tolerant in gardens. It grows 2-5m in the wild, but shorter in most gardens. Reaching a height of 2-3m if left unpruned.
Have you got a part shady spot for one of these special plants?

Come along you or plant fair on October 10th to learn more. Tickets available here 👇
