About Us

For over 2 decades Kerada has been supplying the nation, and beyond, with the finest sun hardened tubestock.

In 1989 the nursery was founded in Kerada Road in Nambour on the beautiful Sunshine Coast, giving birth to its humble beginnings as a wholesale tubestock nursery.

In the mid nineties, the nursery moved to Palmwoods onto a large property that allowed Kerada to grow all their own mother stock on site. During this time, Kerada built a reputation, as "the nursery that would grow what others couldn't" and forged a name as one of the countries leading contract-growing nurseries.

Today, Kerada has grown into an industry-leading supplier of tubestock supplying Australia, Europe and the Pacific with the highest quality native and exotic stock. With growing capacity of almost 2 million tubes per year and growing over one thousand varieties, Kerada supplies a large network of wholesale and retail nurseries, landscape designers and architects and contract grow for industry and government.

The nursery is now on a state of the art growing facility in Cooroy, close to the natural and cultural beauty of Noosa on the Sunshine Coast. The nursery was recently fitted with the very latest in irrigation and brand new hot houses, allowing Kerada to continue its legacy of producing the finest tubestock on the market.

In 2005, Kerada also won the Production Nursery of the Year award from the Nursery Industry of Australia and was recently awarded with its 20 year membership in the Nursery and Garden Industry.

Keradas clients include the Queensland State Government, Australia Zoo, the Australian Wetlands, Alpine Nurseries, Landscape Solutions. Kerada has also supplied stock to England, France, New Caledonia and Singapore.

Kerada is also accredited to supply stock to Western Australia and the Northern Territory, having met all quarantine standards and regulations.
