Our History

Founded in 1979 by Christian and Christine Wolf as Floraland Nursery, Sherwood Garden Centre has grown from a small nursery into a beloved community destination. When their son Bernhard and his wife Carmel took over in 1997, they continued building on this legacy, growing the nursery into one of Gqeberha’s top garden centres.
