Spekplek
This garden is a registered restoration garden within the
Fynbos Corridor Collaboration.
The garden caretaker has committed:
- To support planting of primarily locally indigenous vegetation (note: we don't expect the garden to currently be there, but the caretaker is willing to work toward this goal).
- To work on removing alien and invasive species.
- To periodically provide updates on the status of the garden.
- When possible, to share seeds or cuttings from the garden's indigenous plants with other members of our network.
This is garden ID pending in our corridor.
Description
Situated next to the Liesbeek river, on a traffic island, between Klipfontein road and Gloucester road, next to St George´s Grammar School. This was previously a completely abandoned patch, with invasive grass and nothing else growing here. Thanks to the tireless efforts of a group of local volunteers, this patch is now a thriving fynbos garden!
