More than just pretty flowers at the Garden World Spring Festival

We celebrate the end of Winter with green fingers at the Garden World Spring Festival.

Garden World Spring Fair 8

With a recreation of Kirstenbosch’s gold medal winning entry in the Chelsea Flower Show, this was the happiest of happy places for garden enthusiasts. With a dozen landscapers exhibiting for the first time, the festival is flourishing.It’s hosted by JJ van Rensburg, radio personality and author on all matters gardening.

Garden World Spring Fair 2 

Sonita Young’s entry achieves a lush feel with water-wise plants and takes its cue from the home of a famed Mexican artist. As well as Central American influences there’s this an African decorative installation by Maureen Madiseng - a fourth year student already on her third exhibit. Hues of Spring is what it’s called and the public love it.

Garden World Spring Fair 3

The star of this festival is the recreation of the South African exhibit from the Chelsea Flower Show in London. Designed by David Davidson and Raymond Hudson, it marks the 100th birthday of Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens.

Garden World Spring Fair 4

Someone who came to professional landscaping later than others is Priscilla Banda of Botswana, who comes from a career as a systems analyst.

Garden World Spring Fair 6 

The festival is there to inspire gardeners with award winning designer landscapes and if you’re an enthusiast, you have until Sunday, 4 September to catch it.
