  7. Freesia caryophyllacea is a dwarf, perennial geophyte endemic to the #WesternCape and forms part of the #fynbos. The species occurs from #Wolseley to #Swellendam, #Hermanus and the #AgulhasPlain. The plant grows to a height of 5 to 10 cm. The plant has already lost 77% of its habitat to agricultural activities, urban development and invasive plants. The phenomenon is still ongoing.

  29. Helderberg nature reserve in Somerset West.

    This bit of paradise sits on the edge of the City of Cape Town metro area.

    A massive fire tore through here a few years ago, but the fynbos is doing what fynbos does: regenerating spectacularly.
