Easy
Water every week or two and keep it out of harsh afternoon sun. Hard to kill.
A family plant nursery outside George
Plants grown on the Garden Route, not shipped in
Houseplants, succulents and hardy indigenous plants raised in our own tunnels, then packed by hand and sent to your door.
What are you growing?
Four sections of the nursery, from your bathroom shelf to a dry corner of the garden.
Easy plants to start with
Forgiving, slow to sulk and happy in an ordinary room.
Every plant comes with a care level
Look for the label on each plant page before you buy, so you know what you are taking home.
Some attention
Needs bright light and a regular routine, but tells you clearly when something is wrong.
For keen growers
Particular about light, water and draughts. Rewarding once it settles in.
Water-wise and indigenous
Plants that belong here and cope with dry summers once they are established.
Buying plants online
The questions people ask before trusting a courier with a living thing.
How do plants travel?
Pot and all, wrapped in paper and held upright in a box with air holes. Most arrive in two to three working days.
What if a plant arrives damaged?
Send us a photo within three days of delivery and we will send a replacement or refund you.
Do you deliver big trees?
Plants taller than a metre are for collection or local delivery around George only. Phone us before you order one.
Which plants are safe for pets?
Plants that are harmful to cats and dogs say so on their page. If you are unsure about one, ask us before you buy.
Can I collect from the nursery?
Yes. Choose collection at checkout and pick up from the nursery between Wednesday and Sunday.
Do you give advice on what to plant?
Send us a photo of the spot and tell us how much sun it gets. We will suggest a few plants that will be happy there.
Walk the tunnels on a weekend
The nursery is open Wednesday to Sunday. Bring a box for the back seat.
