Rewild the Garden Route With the country’s poli cal landscape in something of an upheaval, I turn to the natural landscape to spread some good news.

The Garden Route’s natural landscape is stunningly beau ful and ecologically rich – but sadly, much has been destroyed through agriculture, planta ons, urban development and alien plants.

So where’s the good news?

Rewilding. Restoring a damaged environment so that it can func on as it used to – and we all can be part of it.

Rewilding has caught on in Britain and Europe where there are organisa ons dedicated to rewilding. It can be on a massive or small scale.

It’s a really exci ng concept. I’m thinking about residents rewilding the Garden Route wherever they can: gardens, school grounds, road verges, sec ons of farms, public parks.

The first step is to find out what plants are locally indigenous to your area and to get rid of those that don’t belong.

The second step is to plant locally indigenous plants instead.

Most people understand that many alien plants, those from other countries, are bad because they take over and kill our indigenous plants. But you also need to get rid of the plants that may be indigenous somewhere in South Africa, but are not indigenous to the Garden Route.

Fine, you may say, but how do we know what are locally indigenous plants, and where do we get them?

Tra-la! Enter Knysna hor culturist and Pledge Nature Reserve trustee Nanna Joubert, who is planning a nursery at Pledge that will sell only locally indigenous plants which will help you become part of “Rewild Garden Route”.

“Restoring habitats has always been my passion,” says Nanna.

“We have such a wealth of flora to choose from, but some people choose horrible plants, all the wrong things for the area. They may be indigenous to South Africa, but not to the Garden Route. I see them plan ng succulents that don’t belong here when right behind them is a treasure trove of orchids, locally indigenous, growing wild.”

Nanna hopes the nursery will also help supply landscape architects of bigger developments with local plants to rehabilitate disturbed land.

South Africa has 53 vegeta on types listed as “cri cally endangered”.

One of them is Knysna Sand Fynbos. Nanna will make propaga on of these plants a focus of the nursery.

“Overseas they use the word ‘rewilding’, which is such a lekker word and I’ve been using it to get the message across of restoring habitats by replan ng what was there before.”

The Pledge Nursery, which will open in August, will have informa on sheets with photographs of many locally indigenous plants and the specific condi ons each needs.

Remember, what is locally indigenous to gardens in Hornlee may be different from what is locally indigenous to gardens in Brenton or Concordia or Salt River.

“People will be able to select the corrects plants for their par cular habitats, for instance a wetland, or a hot, north-facing slope or cooler south slope and so on.”

Nanna says Pledge Nature Reserve, a botanical gem in the heart of Knysna, desperately needs funding.

“So the nursery will be a make or break for us.”
