South Africa, February 2007
Fynbos is a vegetation type found in the mountains, valleys and coastal plains of the Cape Province, South Africa.
There are more than 7700 plant species in the Fynbos area so colourful surprizes constantly await the traveller.
Many species of erica, protea, daisy, gladiolus, iris and watsonia are indigenous to the area, some confined to very small parts of the area.
In short, beautiful wild flowers abound in the countryside around Grahamstown.
