Back to Chelsea: Fynbos on Show!

South Africa is heading back to the RHS Chelsea Flower Show - and Grootbos Foundation is proud to be part of it!

We’re thrilled that Chris Lochner and Bulelani Bashe are heading to the UK for the second year in a row to help build the fynbos floral display.

Join us on 15 May for a special online session where Chris and Bulelani will take us behind the scenes during the busy build-up to the show. Get a sneak peek before the official opening on 20 May 2025!

Let’s cheer them on as they represent South Africa and showcase the beauty of fynbos to the world!
