Our
Story
The
Banksia Company is located at Furner near Millicent in the south
east of South Australia.
Our
mild climate provides ideal conditions for the production of good
quality native flowers.
We
grow a wide range of Australian and South African species and
are in production for twelve months of the year. All flowers are
plantation grown and are irrigated and fertigated. Our flowers
are marketed from the plantation throughout Australia and exported
to Europe, USA, Canada and Japan.
Our
main local markets are in Sydney, Brisbane and Melbourne. The
original flower farm was planted in 1983 and covered 40 hectares.
Our
second plantation of 20 hectares was planted in 1994. We are continually
making new plantings of improved varieties of flowers as they
become available. We also market the produce of a network of local
growers. This represents another 80 hectares of production.
The
Banksia Company has a 20 year reputation as a reliable and consistent
supplier of top quality flowers with excellent customer service
. Our climate, our selection of plants for propagation, our meticulous
harvest, post-harvest, grading, packing and pre cooling systems
combine to ensure every flower meets both customer requirements
and our quality standards.
