Embrace the Magic of Winter with Mudgee Nursery

As the crisp air of winter settles across the Mudgee region, the landscape transforms into a serene wonderland. Nestled in the hills with four distinct seasons, the Mudgee Region is known for its short but strikingly cold and frosty winters, a time when nature reveals a different kind of beauty.

The staff at Mudgee Nursery believe winter is not a season to endure, but one to embrace. Outdoor living doesn’t end when the temperature drop; it simply changes form. Across the Mudgee region, families and friends gather in cosy backyards around crackling firepits, sharing stories under the stars and enjoying the warmth of good company. 

A well-planned garden shines all year round, and winter offers a unique opportunity to highlight structure, texture, and seasonal fragrance. At Mudgee Nursery, staff specialise in helping you create an outdoor space that thrives even in the coldest months. From firepits to potted gardens to deciduous trees and winter colour, they can help through each stage of your winter garden planning.

By blending evergreen and deciduous plants, you can ensure that your garden has life and interest throughout winter. Evergreens such as Camellias, Magnolias, and Conifers provide lush structure, while the bare branches of deciduous trees like Maples, Elms and Ornamental Pears create dramatic silhouettes against the winter sky. Sprinkle through a good mix of Australian natives and you will have something flowering even in the coldest months of the year.

Winter gardens don’t just look beautiful, they can smell incredible too. Carefully chosen winter-scented plants bring a sensory richness to your outdoor space. At Mudgee Nursery,

you’ll find fragrant varieties like Daphne, Winter Honeysuckle, Wintersweet, winter flowering Viburnums, and Sweet Osmanthus. Their delicate blooms and heady aromas bring joy to chilly mornings and long, cosy evenings. Add pops of colour with winter flowering annuals like violets, stock and pansies and you are well on your way to a garden full of winter interest.

Deciduous trees fall into dormancy during our colder season, and this means it is peak season for bare root trees and shrubs. Fruiting trees, colourful shrubs, roses and ornamental trees of

all shapes, sizes and colours flood the nursery for you to choose from. It is a very exciting time of the year for gardeners!

Mid-year in temperate NSW is a great time to be in the winter food garden as well with brassicas, an abundance of herbs, leafy greens, stir fry veg and plenty of other edibles reaching harvesting stage. More goodness for the winter kitchen. Mudgee Nursery staff are happy to guide you through what can go into the food garden during the cooler months of the year.

Whether you’re planning a new backyard fire pit area, choosing hardy winter plants, or simply seeking inspiration, the team at Mudgee Nursery are happy to help. Their passion for the Mudgee region’s seasonal beauty is reflected in every plant, piece of advice, and each winter garden wonderland that they help create.

This winter, let nature’s quiet magic inspire you.
