A very interesting hour or so if you're a cacti, succulent lover. The lady owner was very informative. A great way to spend an hour or so. A tea garden would be great in this location. More

The rare cactus of blue colour & multiple colour. The cleaniness of the place os good. However if some boards are kept for identifying the type of plant & its origin etc it would be even better More

We went in march and some of the cacti had really gorgeous flowers on them. The nursery has only cacti and a good collection but otherwise nothing to see so if cacti is not your interest then this place is probably not worth the drive. However if you happen to be in kalimpong, then stop by. More

Not into flora that much. Not much to say excepting they were vaguely interesting to look at. There were round football shaped ones and the traditional spiky long armed ones. No idea what which was. If there had been a guided tour, then perhaps it would've been more interesting. More

liked the setup of the nursery and the way the flowers and cactuses nurtured. The whole colour combination makes you fall in love with life again. More

A short walk up the hillside from the main road and from Holumba Haven Resort, this nursery charges a small fee, but has an incredible display of cacti and succulents for viewing and purchase. The owner and his daughter are very knowledgeable and quite willing to provide information. They are keen on preserving endangered specis. More
