We Are Here To Help You Create Your Own Legacy

Our Products

The succulents that are sold here have been part of a collection from the Burger family for more than 50 years.

We grow the plants with knowledge passed down through the generations and ensure that the plants that we sell are at the highest quality. We don’t use any fertilizer with the succulents, so when you put it in your soil it will have no problem adjusting.

Where It All Began

Tynie Burger (1932 – 2010 )

My Grandma started the collection when she lived in Zimbabwe (Rhodesia back then). In 1986 her entire collection had to be transported to South Africa which took them 5 years!

During her time, she was a living legend and everyone knew her as the plant lady from Grahamstown. She even hybridized a new succulent called the Tynie Burger. That plant is super famous and very collectable of course. The plant was officially registered a few months after her death.

A true legend. Maria Martinella Magdalena Johahanna Burger aka Tynie Burger. R.I.P

Hein Burger

Succulent Farmer
After traveling the world on cruise ships, Hein Burger started growing the family business of succulents. He started selling plants officially in 2007 at the grade 4 entrepreneurs’ day at the age of 9. His grandma passed away in 2010, and his family was tasked to run her stall at a 10-day festival. This is when 13-year-old Hein would man a stall for his family with his cool bachelor uncle. He learnt to love succulents through the interactions that he had with people during markets. It was always a side hustle which he worked while being abroad, but now it’s his full-time passion and he loves it!
