Kloof Conservancy Indigenous Open Gardens – what’s on show (Part 4)
The Kloof Conservancy Indigenous Open Gardens show is taking place this weekend, and we take a sneak preview at the crowd's favourite – Tanya Visser’s garden in Assagay.
THE Kloof Conservancy Indigenous Open Gardens takes place this weekend, March 25 and 26. The organisation has secured some outstanding gardens for the show.
It will feature some new gardens as well as a crowd favourite – Tanya Visser’s garden in Assagay.
Tanya Visser’s garden has been a regular feature in the show since 2019, and the organisation is grateful that Tanya has agreed to open the garden once again. This garden always presents a ‘new face’, thanks to Tanya’s passion and tireless efforts to always have her garden in prime condition for the show. “We have never featured it as a late summer garden so we are excited at what is in store for visitors!” said Candotti.

The show will run from 09:00 to 16:00 each day, and the entry fee will be R30 per person per garden for three gardens and a single-entry fee of R75 to enter the Stoneford Estate and view the other three gardens.
“As usual, the show will include the presence of environmental NGOs and craftsmen and nurseries, as well as plant experts and the ever-popular Nature Facts Treasure Hunt for children. We will be updating our website with more details as we finalise the finer points of the show, but in the meantime, book the date,” said Candotti.
He said the Kloof Conservancy Indigenous Gardens Show has two primary objectives: To showcase indigenous gardens and to inspire all visitors/homeowners to plant more indigenous species.
