ALOE RIDGE

Olievenhout Avenue, Northriding

As so many people begged to see the garden when  Aloes are flowering  and it is   at its most  most spectacular ,the owner very kindly agreed to open it again  in May when 600 aloes will be at various stages of flowering

ALOE RIdge ,an indigenous garden, is set in the Northriding Agricultural Holdings Valley just below the Northgate Dome. There are over 300 planted South African indigenous tree species growing amongst the original Ancient African Olives, Mountain Karee, Bushman’s poison, Common Hook thorn . As most of the  trees and shrubs are not labelled ,it is advisable to bring a tree spotting book such as  Sappi tree spotting for the Highveld.
