| Obesa Nursery and Gardens was started 35 years ago by owner C.J. Bouwer.
Initially a hobby, that grew into a uncontrolable obsession, assimilating 10 hectres of land. This makes Obesa one of the biggest privately owned nurseries in the world today.
We currently house abot 7 000 species of plants, and raise about 350 000 plants each year. Our stock plants exeed 2 million individuals. This concists of ;
1.) Miniature Cacti
2.) Medium Sized Cacti
3.) Cacti Giants
4.) South-African Succulents, Madagascan Succulents
5.) Caudiciforms
6.) Aloes
7.) Cycads and Assosiates
8.) Medicinal Plants
9.) Rare and Endangered Flora and many others.
Our biggest focus is on the Conservation and Propagation of Rare and Endangered plants. We specialize in export of medium and large cacti for Wholesale, Reatail and Lanscaping purposes.
We supply Globally and have been in Global Wholesale for 10 years. Situated in Graaff-Reinet ( a small town in the Eastern Cape of South-Africa ), our climate supports these zerophitic plants with summer temperatures reaching 50 degrees celsius. The plants love this and grow faster here than in most places. They are pest free and healthy. |
