Fynbos Flower Exhibit: Grootbos Foundation Sneak Peek

Bulelani and Asavela are hard at work as part of the Chelsea Flowers build team, creating something truly special. The flower exhibit is being built with local craftsmanship, blending farmed cut flowers and wild-harvested greenery to produce a stunning fynbos crescendo for the senses.
