June 30, 2021 Osvaldo Hartline

The Eastern Cape is a province of South Africa. Its capital is Bhisho, but its two largest cities are Port Elizabeth and East London. It was formed in 1994 out of the Xhosa homelands of Transkei and Ciskei, together with the eastern portion of the Cape Province. Landing place and home of the 1820 settlers, the central and eastern part of the province is the traditional home of the Xhosa people.

Obesa Cacti Nursery

Reviewed By Danie92 - Johannesburg, South Africa

Forget about the negativity of some people. Go and experience it yourself and have a chat with the owner even if you do not agree with his ideas and views. The most interesting character I have met for ages. The cacti is something to behold and he doesn't interfere with nature that's why some see it as neglect and a lack of maintenance. Huge variety of cacti for sale at very reasonable prices. Will definitely not drive through Graaff-Reinet again without popping in.
