Guess who’s back. Clematis are back — tell a friend.
The 2026 mail-order season has officially sprung to life, and we’ve been counting down the days.

About Us

We’re a family-run nursery tucked away in Devon Meadows, Victoria, growing Clematis and a cast of other seriously garden-worthy plants. Our story kicked off in 1991, when Judy and David Button planted the first roots of this whole adventure in Berwick, Victoria. After 25 very happy years there, we packed up the pots and moved to our current patch in 2016 — and we haven’t looked back since.

Most of what we do happens quietly behind the scenes, so you’ve probably never seen our name in lights. We’re a production nursery, supplying Clematis and companion plants to independent garden centres, landscapers, designers, florists, and mail-order nurseries all over Australia. Translation: there’s a very good chance one of our plants has already snuck its way into your garden without you ever knowing.

Here’s the thing about Clematis, though — the good ones are ridiculously hard to find. Try hunting down something a bit unusual and you’ll quickly hit a wall. That’s exactly why, once a year, we throw open the gates for home gardeners. Judy and David run the whole show themselves through the quieter winter months, and honestly, it’s the bit they look forward to most — swapping notes with fellow plant nerds, answering the tricky questions, and playing matchmaker between gardener and Clematis.

Mail Order Is Open — Get In While You Can

The 2026 season is live, with orders heading out the door from 23rd June. We’ve pulled together another gorgeous line-up, whether you’re a serial collector chasing that one elusive variety or a first-timer about to fall in love with Clematis for the very first time.
But don’t dawdle — orders close 31st July 2026. After that, we won’t be taking mail orders again until 1st May 2027. Ten whole months! So if a variety has caught your eye, this is your moment.

Team Local? We’ve Got You Covered Too

Prefer to shop closer to home? We also supply a great line-up of independent garden centres right across Australia. It’s always worth asking your local nursery — plenty are happy to order in specific varieties, and some keep a curated selection on hand. Find your nearest one here: ahn.com.au/clematis-locator

New to Clematis? Buckle Up

If you’ve never grown one before, you’re about to understand the fuss. These plants are showstoppers — an outrageous range of colours, forms, and growth habits, all doing their own thing in your garden. Catch one in full bloom, and it will genuinely stop you mid-stride.
We’re proud to be among the last dedicated Clematis growers left in Australia, producing a serious range at serious scale — over 230 varieties on the go at any one time. Every plant that leaves us is garden-ready: strong, well-established, and typically around three years old. They’ve already done their growing up, so they hit the ground running once they’re in your soil.
They’re not the cheapest plants you’ll find because they are very labour-intensive to grow in a production nursery environment, but they’re the kind that pay you back — year after year — with beauty, character, and a bit of unmistakable garden magic. Clematis are long-lived plants with a life span of 50+ years.

Thanks for stopping by. Go on, have a browse — and grab your favourites before the gates close for another ten months.
