The waboom forms part of South Africas fynbos vegetation and lives up to expectations with its adaptations to fire. |
It has a particular vegetation, with fynbos and proteas, unusual little orchids and thousands of flower varieties. |
It is planted with many varieties of Cape fynbos, cycads, huge strelitzias, beds of clivias, large arum lilies, proteas and trees such as yellowwood and cabbage. |
What at first looks like a landscape dotted only with fynbos quickly reveals a much more coloured visage when examined more closely. |
As many as a third of all plant species in the fynbos are dispersed by ants. |
With its trademark fynbos and renosterveld, forest and other unique plant types, the CFK stretches south from Clanwilliam to Cape Town and then east to Port Elizabeth. |
