Desert Oasis: Spines & Succulents Unveiled in the Jardin Botanique du Désert

W. Syaban

March 19, 2025

When you blend a family estate with the dedication of two enthusiastic gardeners over many years of effort and waiting, what emerges? A thriving masterpiece among La Désirade’s greatest achievements!

This botanical garden in La Désirade , cascading in terraces down the hillside, boasts an astounding collection of over 800 species of cacti from around the world. The owners Jorg and Aline are proud to share the botanical treasures of their garden with visitors, including the melocactus intortus A native species has been saved from near-extinction through dedicated conservation initiatives. These efforts include meticulous cultivation to foster new growth cycles before returning these distinct plants to their original environment. Picture an oasis amidst dunes; such serene waterholes edged by flowers attract indigenous fauna when the island experiences droughts. Additionally, you might encounter friendly iguanas, some of the area’s most recognizable inhabitants. The botanical gardens remain accessible even after sunset, ideal for those wishing to enjoy visits accompanied by the symphony of croaking frogs. As your departure approaches, consider taking home clippings along with professional advice on how best to cultivate them, allowing you to recreate part of this arid haven at your residence. Don’t miss out on another highlight—the spectacular ocean vistas visible from atop La Désirade!
