Canberra's 106-year-old Yarralumla Nursery will receive $690,000 of upgrades to ensure it can continue growing trees to be planted across the city.
City Services Minister Chris Steel said the work included restoring old infrastructure such as the propagation shed, roofs on major buildings as well as the restoration of a 1930s glasshouse.
Its bird net structure was also being replaced, as well as benches in six historic glasshouses.
The Yarralumla Nursery, which is estimated to have grown more than 50 million trees since being established as the Government Nursery in 1914, has helped to shape the ACT landscape including the Parliamentary Triangle, Glebe and Weston Parks, and Canberra's urban streets.
