Photographic Guide to Wild Flowers of South Africa by Braam Van Wyk
The flowers are grouped according to floral colouring (sections are therefore colour coded), and concise information on the flowers is focused on identification in the field. The authoritative text, by a leading expert, also features interesting historical, medicinal and cultural facts about the flowers described. A distribution map of each flower is featured in conjunction with the textual entries and two pages of diagrams are further aids to easy identification of flowers by leaf and flower types and parts.
