How we work
The way we grow plants is shaped by this environment. It’s dry here, the soil is sandy, and the wind can be tough. Rather than trying to control all of that, we work with it.
We specialise in succulents; most of our plants are indigenous, but we also have succulents from other parts of the world. Everything is chosen with the same idea in mind — it must be able to cope with heat and drought and still perform well. Working within a regenerative framework influences how we approach the nursery. Our plants are grown outdoors from an early stage, in real conditions. This means that our plants harden naturally, are better adapted to the environment and are more garden-ready.
