It's easy to see why The Standard, one of Kenya's premier newspapers, called the Africa Nazarene University campus an "oasis" in the suburbs of Nairobi. The University Vice Chancellor supervised the original plantings and still takes an active interest in the gardens.The area between the four story administration building and the campus library is filled with flowers, bushes and trees. University staff work daily to water, prune, and encourage the plantlife. The moderate climate encourages plant growth that can be astonishing to North Americans. Several places on the campus are poinsettia plants that are over five feet tall. Other plants are similarly lush and attractive.
