Reseña del editor
The southwestern Cape is home to one of the world's richest floras. From an estimated 7,000 species of true fynbos, "Field Guide to Fynbos" covers over 1,000 species of this flora, focusing on the most common and conspicuous wild flowers, with an emphasis on OEshowy1 species, or those that are most likely to be encountered. Each species, with common name/s where known, is accompanied by: a vivid photograph, distribution map, comparisons with similar species where applicable, and notes on traditional uses.For the first time, non-botanists have a real chance of accurately identifying a significant proportion of the Cape's fynbos species, making this an indispensable guide.
