Cape Town is situated within the most bio-diverse plant kingdom in the world, and within a very short distance of the city we have a variety of very different habitats, which experience vastly different climatic conditions. All of these habitats are harsh and the respective plants have adapted to these different degrees of harshness. However in August and September even the plants in the harshest environment put on a show!

I hope that you enjoy the selected flower pictures which I have taken over the past 5 weeks.
