    The Gardens

    Garden No 1

    This garden has never been on show before and has undergone extensive renovation in the very recent past. As such it offers a blend of established and new plantings and numerous interesting features.

    Garden No 2 – The Toyota Wessels Institute for Manufacturing Studies (TWIMS), 74 Everton Road, Kloof

    This garden has previously been on show with the Rotary Anns but has since been significantly added to with large new gardens and a wetland. It offers a blend of intimate gardening (the original garden) and an extensive corporate garden.

    Garden No 4

    Garden 4 – The garden of Shireen and Laurence Borchard, 7 Falls View Road, Everton

    This stunning garden is packed with a very wide range of locally indigenous species on the edge of Krantzkloof Nature reserve. It is at its best during the winter season so we can expect a colourful display.

    Garden No 5

    Garden 5 – The garden of Heather and Gary Balcomb, 8 Kenelm Road, Everton

    Under the previous owner this garden was proudly “wild” but has been mildly tamed as Heather and Gary introduced some structure to sections of the garden without detracting from it’s wild nature. There is a small but very “productive” grassland and an extensive forest section to explore.

    Garden No 6

    Garden 6 – The garden of Izolda and Tanya Visser, 6 Controversy Road, Assagay

    This garden is now a regular feature of our garden show and we continue to feature it because of  Izolda and Tanya’s passion for encouraging gardening and all that it entails. Tanya always rejuvenates the garden and there is always something new to see.
