About us
Afri Orchids is a family owned nursery, based in Nelspruit, South Africa. We started our collection about forty years ago and like most orchids enthusiasts, we want to grow anything from anywhere. As a result, we have gathered a huge variety of species from across the globe.
Christo Grobler started the collection in the early 1970's and Lourens became passionate about the hobby from a very young age. His enthusiasm worked magic to get his wife, Jolisa also involved. Together we have grown, photographed and judged many orchids.
The collection remains a hobby, but we always seem to outgrow our capacity and therefor we can now share a number of our plants with other enthusiasts.
We are a specialist orchid nursery that focuses mainly on species from around the world.
We do not keep bulk stock and can unfortunately not help with large orders for weddings or functions.
