Situated conveniently near the roundabout on Lower Kabete Road, Brookside Nursery is a top spot for plant shopping in Nairobi. They sell a wide variety of plants like succulents, ferns, flowers, and more. What sets them apart is their fantastic plastic up-cycling program: they take used milk cartons and turn them into plant pots. So, if you're into plants or looking for an eco-friendly initiative, this is the place to check out! Also, consider donating your used plastic milk cartons to be recycled in this highly creative way.
The Nursery is on a small piece of land between Lower Kabete Road and Mwanzi Road, which stretches to Peponi Road. This area is filled with many co-owners, who all cooperate and make it feel like one colossal planetarium with almost every plant you could imagine. Located opposite the Somali embassy on Lower Kabete, we found Bonface who showed us around. He estimates that there are over 100 people working in the nurseries. If you're looking for a endless verity of plants this is by far the prime location to go being one of the biggest in Nairobi.
