Nursery & Garden Shop
The Nursery is one of the engines for the work we do at the gardens. Not only does it provide plants for sale and for the development work at the gardens, it is also the resource for our numerous external projects that are promoting the conservation of the TDEF at many levels of society – ranging from local schools to large campuses, resorts and hotels.
The Garden Shop is our outlet for good quality garden tools, flower pots and other garden accessories. It is also the billing center for all of the plant sales from our nursery.
