ABOUT
US
Ray
and Lorraine Clement established Tinonee Orchid Nursery in 1984 when
they moved to Tinonee from Sydney. The nursery commenced on a very small
scale and slowly grew till, in 1987, it was opened to visitors on Saturdays.
Due to a steady increase in size, and in demand, the nursery was opened
to visitors on Thursday, Friday and Saturday in 1989. In 1990 Ray commenced
working full time in the nursery and in 1992 the Nursery was opened
six days per week and a full time employee appointed. The Nursery now
employs 5 people on a permanent basis, 2 full time and 3 permanent part
time.
Tinonee
Orchid Nursery specialises in the breeding and propagation of many genera
of orchids, from Native Australian orchids to most of the popular genera
from many other countries around the world.
Many
orchids grow in the wild in the Manning Valley; all within an hour or
twos drive from Tinonee. It is these orchids that Tinonee Orchids have
tended to specialise in, with many hybrids now available from these
native species. Hybrids in fifth and sixth generation are offered to
orchid growers, and much interest exists in these plants from within
Australia and overseas.
Orchids
from Tinonee are available at the Nursery, from our stall at most of
the large orchid shows around the country, or through our mail order
catalogue.
