Description
Hargraves Nursery is dedicated to bring both people and plants together to create a growing community. Where We Began
For over 44 years, we have been bringing beautiful plants and people together. Started in 1971 Hargraves Nursery planted its roots in the sleepy village of Dural. Two acres of rubbish and blackberries, an old tennis court, and the foundations of old stables from a coaching house were cleared and Hargraves Nursery was born.
It has evolved today into one of Sydney's leading nurseries. Dural is no longer sleepy, but it is still beautiful. It is now ad joints the bustling suburbs of Cherrybrook, Castle Hill, Kellyville, Pennant Hills and Hornsby.
