  • Kabulonga Garden Club

    < Back View Online Kabulonga Garden Club Speciality Items Garden Tours, Garden Workshops About the Company In a fast-growing city like Lusaka, urban development often pushes natural green spaces to the margins. Yet, behind the residential gates of one of the city's most established neighborhoods, a quiet, community-driven movement is taking root. The Kabulonga Garden Club has evolved from a simple social circle of plant enthusiasts into an active advocate for urban ecology, proving that suburban backyards can play a massive role in building a greener, more resilient city. From Private Hobbies to Public Impact Led by Florence Mwila-Mumba, the Kabulonga Garden Club brings together a diverse mix of passionate gardeners. The core of the club's activity revolves around its highly anticipated garden walkthroughs. Members open their gates to host tours, offering a rare peek into stunning private landscapes. These walkthroughs display a wide variety of styles, from expansive, mature suburban plots filled with towering shade trees to highly creative, small-scale potted plant arrangements. Beyond the aesthetic inspiration, these tours act as live, hyper-local masterclasses where neighbors troubleshoot shared climate and soil challenges. By balancing the social joy of sharing plant cuttings with a strong conservation ethos, the Kabulonga Garden Club is setting a beautiful example for residential communities across Zambia. They are proving that you don’t need to manage a vast forest to make a difference—sometimes, a greener city starts with a single backyard. To join the club reach out to the club via the number on their Facebook page. --- Learn more about how individual efforts shape the capital by watching this insight into [Making Lusaka Greener](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AWmoT38Uscc), which features a direct look at a club meeting and practical discussions on urban greening. < Back Next>

  • Planting Trees | Greenspace Zambia

    Join the New Green Revolution Why You Need To Plant A Tree Zambia is home to extensive natural forests, with around 66% of the country's land area still covered in these vital ecosystems. However, as urban and agricultural development continues, large areas of land are being cleared and left unprotected, resulting in depleted soils, higher temperatures, and, most importantly, reduced water retention, making us increasingly vulnerable to climate change. By planting more trees, we will be preserving and expanding Zambia’s tree cover, and we can improve our general quality of life for residents. This video from Kenya tells the story of diminishing forests in Kenya. Do parts of it sound eerily similar to our situation in Zambia? How many streams and wetlands do you know of that have dried up because of reckless tree cutting?

SUBSCRIBE TO NEWSLETTER Natural Forest Regeneration Planting trees is not the only way to restore our forests. To truly revive our ecosystems, we also need to support nature in regenerating itself. Protect the Forest from Fire! Miombo woodlands are rich in plants adapted to sporadic fires, but frequent burning now causes severe damage. Fires deplete organic matter, kill vegetation, and harden soil, making recovery difficult. Rebuilding topsoil can take 30 years, and restoring the tree canopy takes even longer. By stopping field burning, we give nature a chance to slowly rebuild the soil. Watch this video of the miombo burning! Sustainable Harvesting of Firewood Many trees are cut down for urban charcoal use. With careful forest management, natural regrowth can supply rural wood needs without causing deforestation. Sustainable tree pruning is a key part of Farmer-Managed Natural Regeneration.

  • Sansevieria species & cultivars

    < Back Sansevieria species & cultivars Snake Plants Sansevieria, commonly known as Snake Plant or Mother-in-Law's Tongue, is a popular houseplant that is loved for its unique, upright leaves and low-maintenance nature. Originating from Africa, this hardy plant is easy to care for and can add a touch of greenery to any space. Origin and Habitat: Sansevieria is native to Africa, from Nigeria to Congo, and has been cultivated for centuries for its medicinal properties. The plant was used to treat various ailments, such as snake bites, headaches, and even syphilis. In the wild, Sansevieria can be found in a variety of habitats, from arid deserts to rainforests. It has adapted to survive in harsh conditions, which is why it is such a popular houseplant. Popular Cultivars There are many different cultivars of Sansevieria, each with its own unique characteristics. Some of the most popular include: -Sansevieria trifasciata: This is the most common cultivar of Sansevieria, with long, pointed leaves that are green with yellow stripes. It is a great air purifier and can remove toxins from the air. -Sansevieria cylindrica: This cultivar has cylindrical leaves that are arranged in a rosette. The leaves are a grey-green color and have horizontal bands of light green. -Sansevieria 'Moonshine': This cultivar has silvery-green leaves that are more upright than other cultivars. It is a great choice for modern and minimalist decor. Habit: Upright ti low growing evergreen succulents growing from rhizomes and producing cylindrical, flat or thick, U-shaped leaves variously decorated with various shades of green, yellow, white and cream markings. Temperature: Plants grow best between 20 to 30ᐤ C and temperatures below 4ᐤ C may result in the death of the plant. Light Exposure: Sansevieria can tolerate a wide range of light conditions, from low to bright, indirect light. However, they do best in bright, indirect light. Direct sunlight can burn the leaves, while low light can cause the leaves to become floppy and weak. If your Sansevieria is not getting enough light, it will not grow as quickly and may become susceptible to pests and diseases. Watering:Sansevieria is drought-tolerant and does not require frequent watering. In fact, in the ground they can survive for months without water. In pots, Snake plants need to dry out between waterings regardless of light exposure and it’s always best to err on the side of caution if in doubt. As a rule of thumb, watering once every two weeks during the rainy season, once a month in the cold dry season and once a week in the hot dry season. Fertilising: Snake Plants can be fertilised with a well balanced fertiliser at half strength only once per month. Plants can be damaged by over fertilizing so one must be careful. Pruning/Repotting: Pruning is not usually required but occasionally needed when leaves die or are damaged. Sansevieria prefers to be slightly root-bound, so it is best to plant it in a pot that is only slightly larger than the root ball. Repotting is necessary when roots start coming out the bottom of the pot or when the rhizomes start to deform the pot and is best carried out just before starting into active growth at the end of the cold dry season. Pests/Diseases: Sansevieria is relatively pest-resistant, but it can still be susceptible to spider mites and mealybugs. To prevent these pests, inspect your plant regularly and isolate any infected plants. Use an insecticidal soap or neem oil to treat infestations. In conclusion, Sansevieria is a great choice for anyone looking for a low-maintenance houseplant that is easy to care for. With its unique appearance and air-purifying abilities, it can add a touch of greenery to any space. < Back Next

  • Syngonium podophyllum

    < Back Syngonium podophyllum Arrowhead Plant Origin and Habitat of Syngonium Podophyllum Syngonium podophyllum is a member of the Araceae family, which includes other popular houseplants such as Philodendron and Monstera. The plant is native to tropical rainforests in South America, Central America, and Mexico, where it grows as an epiphyte or a hemiepiphyte on trees and other plants. Habit: Generally slender vining/climbing evergreen plants that can grow up to 10 to 20 m tall producing arrowhead shaped leaves of solid green to more commonly variegated types with green and white, green and creamy yellow and newer varieties with varying degrees of different shades of pink. Plants are usually displayed climbing up some type of trellis or allowed to hang down. Temperature: Plants grow best between 15 to 30ᐤ C and temperatures below 4ᐤ C will result in the death of the plant. Avoid placing plants in windy or drafty locations which can lead to less attractive plants as the leaflets can get tattered. Light Exposure: Plants will grow well in medium to bright, indirect light but are capable of surviving in low light locations in which the plants will grow very slowly. Plants with darker solid green leaves are more able to withstand lower light locations; variegated plants put in the same low light conditions will likely lose their variegation and revert to solid green leaves. Watering: Syngoniums like a moist growing medium but not soggy; water only when the top 3 cm of soil feels dry to the touch. Always check the soil moisture first but as a rule of thumb watering once a week in the rainy season, once every two or three weeks in the cold dry season and usually twice a week in the hot dry season. In addition, regularly misting the leaves in the hot dry season will help keep the foliage looking great. Fertilising: Plants need to be fertilised with a well balanced fertiliser at half strength once to twice per month. Over fertilizing plants can make them more susceptible to pest attack so one must be careful to keep a closer eye on plants fertilised twice per month. Pruning/Repotting: Remove yellowing or dry dead leaves as necessary. Pruning out the growing tip will cause more branching and a bushier plant. Repotting is generally necessary when roots start to grow out the bottom of the pot and repotted into a new pot one size larger. Pests/Diseases: Pest Control: Syngonium podophyllum is susceptible to pest infestations, such as spider mites and mealybugs. While a few fungal and bacterial pathogens cause leaf spot and blight issues as well as stem rot of the plants. < Back Next
