Mackies Garden Centre

OPENING HOURS ARE

MONDAY TO SUNDAY 10AM - 4PM

Welcome

We are located just out of Alexandra, in the peaceful and sheltered surrounds of Letts Gully.  There are developing display areas and  a large carpark which makes visiting a pleasant experience. A large proportion of our plants are grown outside, on site and are therefore conditioned to Central Otago's climatic extremes. Our plant selection is wide ranging. From this seasons vegies for your vegetable garden to deciduous shade trees that offer spectacular autumn colour to hardy native species that support our local wildlife. We almost have it all and on the off chance we can't supply at the time, we can source for you.
