Hazendal Wine Estate outside Stellenbosch will be at the heart of this year's annual and exclusive garden installation by celebrated 2024 Landscaper of the Year, Leon Kluge (pictured). Between Two Worlds is an immersive multi-sensory experience that transports visitors into a mesmeric state between wake and sleep through celebrating the beauty of the plant kingdom. The extraordinary garden that earned South Africa top honours – gold, Best on Show and Best Lighting awards – at the Singapore Garden Festival last year, opens to the public on Earth Day (Tuesday 22 April) and runs until Friday 2 May. Kluge is an internationally acclaimed landscape artist and botanist known for his bold and thought-provoking creations. Last year he won "Best Exhibit in the Pavilion" as well as the "Best New Design" award at the RHS Chelsea Flower Show held in London with perfect scores from the RHS judges. He continues to push the boundaries of garden design, blending exceptional artistic vision and horticultural expertise to create spaces that inspire and educate people about botany. Hazendal is proud to present the internationally-acclaimed masterpiece, which forms part of the estate's approach to inspire cultural conversations through meaningful art, considered craftsmanship and mindful innovation. The estate is also partnering with Kluge to reimagine the gardens across the historic property and in the farm's vineyards and create a new botanical garden dedicated to the renosterveld community of the Cape Floristic Region. Tickets, at R170 per person, are limited and available through Quicket. — Hazendal Wine Estate outside Stellenbosch will be at the heart of this year’s annual and exclusive garden installation by celebrated 2024 Landscaper of the Year, Leon Kluge (pictured).
