I’ve been following @leonkluge on insta for a while now and he’s becoming a botanical David Attenborough of South African plants with his gentle, informative explanations. He also puts together these whizz bang international flower show winning displays so we decided to meet a young couple who were honeymooning in Cape Town at this display at Hazendal wine estate.
The couple were fascinating and lovely themselves - both physics PHDs at one of the most famous scientific institutes in the world. But also with the refreshing kind of left politics that can get you arrested many countries 🏴🚩
The display was a kind of mystic floral wonderland of plants local and exotic with day/night changes with lights, music, and mist.
