Originally Peter and Estelle had not planned on re-opening the old nursery but while cleaning up the site, there were constant queries from the public asking when the nursery would be reopening. Seeing the high need for a quality retail nursery in Darwin, Estelle with two young children, began potting up palms day and night for months on end and eventually opened Allora Gardens Nursery a year later.
Having no horticultural experience or qualifications, Estelle’s aim was to provide quality products and service to the Darwin home gardeners and the commercial landscaping industry. This came during a time when the Northern Territory was experiencing an unprecedented building and construction growth period with a rapid increase in population.
