About Little Falls Epi Nursery
Little Little Falls Epi Nursery is
presently situated in Sundowner, Randburg, from where we supply epiphytic
cactus. Although we supply cuttings, mainly though mail orders, we do enjoy
visitors by appointment, who can then obtain established plants, and of course
are also able to see how the plants are cultivated along with other interesting
epiphytic plants, requiring similar conditions.
We are always pleased to have enquiries and comments regarding any aspect of
epiphyllum cultivation, and especially enjoy seeing pictures of your plants in
flower.
We are also able to supply water soluble 2:3:4 to feed the plants.
Little Falls Epi Nursery was founded by June and Nick Smith who had been avid
collectors of epiphyllums since 1985, and although they hoped for some
financial gain when retiring, also dedicated themselves to promoting and
displaying these beautiful flowers.
They were featured in various magazine articles, and were also on television on
the gardening programme "Gardens Wild and Wonderful". They were also awarded a
silver medal in the category of display awards at the Natal Witness Show in
2000.
They are now happily enjoying their retirement, Nick spending time playing
bridge, fishing and attending to his stamp collection, and June very involved
in the gardens, water aerobics and community life of their village.
We have enjoyed carrying on their traditions and have instituted an "Open Week"
in October each year so that we can share the flowers with our many
"epi-friends". It is a wonderful time for us when we have the opportunity to
meet, chat and relax together whilst we marvel at the wonderful show our plants
provide, and to show our appreciation for the support we receive during the
year.
Although we are not yet in a position to be open as a full time nursery, we are
working towards this, which is why we request that you contact us first before
visiting, as although we are usually open week ends and holidays, if you would
like to see us during the week Harry can usually arrange to be available.
If you would like a copy of our latest brochure, please do not hesitate to
contact us.
Regards
Harry & Sylvia Healey
