Biography Local Boy Made Good By Miriam Young Mark van Kesteren’s story is a simple, yet inspiring tale of achievement earned through hard work, learning from the master and using a little imagination to progress. The Nursery Kebra nursery By Miriam Young Kebra is jointly owned by Mark van Kesteren and Patrick Brama. Together they look after many new perennial varieties during the vital early production stages. Breeding work New possibilities from Kebra By Miriam Young Being so involved in the growing of new varieties, it’s only natural that Mark and Patrick should be curious as to how well they can do at creating a few of their own, so in 1999 they set up a breeding program for Delphiniums and Campanulas.
