Who We Are

We are an award winning Garden Centre just on the outskirts of Nelspuit which provides for a good escape out of the city. We have a large variety of concrete pots, birdbaths, garden furniture, garden decor, gift shop items and lastly plants. Friendly staff are always here to assist and go that extra mile for you and your family.

Our Story

A few hand-crafted pots made by co-founder Claudia Boshoff – that’s what got Concrete and Garden Creations off to the blooming business it is today.

It all started back in 1998 when the first pots were made. Little did she know that those pots were going to secure a future that will carry her family through for many years to come.

Seeking the ideal subtropical environment with husband and co-founder Piet Boshoff in 2004, what better place than Nelspruit, the capital city of Mpumalanga.

Sharing the same love for both plants and concrete creations, Piet and Claudia then secured a piece of land and created this award winning garden centre, adding not only the gift shop in 2006, but also the nursery in 2008.
