Hooked on Aloes - a genus of plants from the african continent and arabian peninsula 
I AM PASSIONATE ABOUT GROWING ALOES FOR MANY REASONS; THEY FEED MY SOUL, RECONNECT ME TO MEMORIES, FRIENDS AND ADVENTURES, THEY INSPIRE, CHALLENGE MY PATIENCE, OFFER NOVELTY, WHISPER NOSTALGIA, BUT MOSTLY THEY PROPOSE INFINITE JOY & GROWTH

GROWth & SEEDS

Everything about growth, sowing a seed, nurturing and changing. Having the courage and patience to become stronger and more beautiful and to chase our potentials. Starting afresh, feeding, fertilising and tough love. 

Blooms & RACEMES

A mosaic of flowers, jewels, leaves and foliage, tessellated  among winding pathways. Accessories to the winter landscape, matching bright African leafy silk backgrounds. Pushing fashion and style to virtual breaking points.

Sunlands, Harare, Zimbabwe
ZIMBABWE & HOME

Our home and Aloe garden in Umwinsidale, Harare, Zimbabwe.. My history; each plant a memory, a friend, a place, a person, a moment in time. A canvas of our lives and explorations in the country we love and miss.
