The Cape Floral Kingdom is one of the richest, smallest and most threatened floral kingdoms on Earth.
The Garden Route Botanical Garden therefore, has a vital role to play nationally and globally in the conservation and study of what is arguably proving to be a rich diversity of plant life in this area.
In addition the garden's position at the heart of the Garden Route, an area of the country named after its fantastic flora and famous worldwide for the beauty of its natural environment, makes it ideally suited to this vital role.
The Garden Route Botanical Gardens holds its autumn Indigenous plant sale around the end of April every year. The Fynbos festival is traditionally held around the middle of October each year.
This festival incorporates a 2 day indigenous plant sale, hosts of eco-stalls, various informative gardening demos as well as a tea garden food stalls and various other uniquely green events.
The Fynbos Festival is their biggest annual fundraiser and they urge you to come and join them as they celebrate their rich floral diversity and green living experience. All profits from the proceeds go to the furtherance of the Garden Route Botanical Gardens
The Garden Route Botanical Gardens is open to the public seven days a week. The public are allowed access to the gardens from sunrise to sunset. Access to the gardens is free of charge.
