Nelspruit - Agricultural Hub and Thrilling Destination

East of the bustling city of Johannesburg in the Mpumalanga Province is the agricultural hub of Nelspruit. Located near the Kruger National Park, Nelspruit is not just a major centre for fruit production in South Africa, but is a wonderful destination for nature lovers and it is home to a new soccer stadium, built for the hosting of the 2010 Football World Cup. With Mango, Pawpaw, Avocado and citrus farms on the doorstep of Nelspruit, visitors can enjoy fresh fruit and vegetables throughout their stay.

Hiking trails and other outdoor activities allow visitors to explore the picturesque landscapes surrounding Nelspruit, while historical trails take those who are interested on a journey through the rich heritage of the city. A cinema complex and entertainment centre will keep younger visitors occupied, while adult visitors can relax and enjoy activities such as golf, tempting lady luck at the Emnotweni Casino or take the family to exciting excursions such as the Halls Estate, Ostrich Farm and Crocodile Farm. Nelspruit is a thrilling destination where visitors can rejuvenate and enjoy the beauty of this magnificent city.

I am a botanist and private collector in Holland. I am collecting Amaryllidaceae. I am searching Hippeastrum species,Hymenocallis species and Griffinia species. Also other Amaryllidaceae such as Brunsvigia ,Ammocharis,Boophane,Placea, Crinum, Rhodophiala species are very welcome. I am searching bulbs of seeds of these plants. Also I am searching some seeds or seedlings from Cryptostephanus species. Can and will you help me please? Or do you know other people in you area who can help me? Maybe botanists or private collectors? Thank you very much and I hope to hear soon from you again. Ton Wijnen Holland"
