This book was released on 2013-09-12 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Southern African Wild Flowers takes readers on a journey through the diverse landscapes of the subregion, showcasing the unique richness of its wild flowers along the way. Each chapter focuses on a specific region, highlighting the most beautiful, interesting and rare plants occurring there. The journey begins at the Zambezi river and then moves down the eastern part of southern Africa through the well-watered ‘land of plenty’. From here, the reader is taken through the splendours of the Cape fynbos and then northwards, to end in the parched ‘thirstlands’ of the west. Beautiful full-colour photographs by well-known botanical photographer Colin Paterson-Jones celebrate the flora of the region, while the authoritative text reveals insights into the plants themselves, their origins, interactions with other living organisms, and their often remarkable adaptation to sometimes hostile environments. Emphasis is given to the context in which the flowers grow; and the changing vegetation and landscapes are featured throughout, displaying the extraordinary diversity within southern Africa.

Book Synopsis Wild Flowers of South Africa by : J. P. Rourke
Download or read book Wild Flowers of South Africa written by J. P. Rourke and published by Continental Enterprises Group. This book was released on 1996 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: South Africa's floral heritage, one of the richest in the world, continues to capture the excited attention of botanists and laymen. Like the land itself, its flora provides an abundance of contrasts, from the bashful disa to the proudly beautiful strelitzia, the majestic giant protea and the wealth of ericas which share its rocky kingdom, the blazing carpets of daisies of Namaqualand, to the burnished spears of an aloe-covered hillside. The first chapter introduces the reader to the wonders of our floral kingdom while brief captions identify each flower and indicate when and where it is likely to be seen. Essentially all the more decorative families of flowering plants have been covered. Plates are grouped according to families and a brief commentary introduces each family. Scientific names are used throughout with common names being given where these are accepted, as well as anecdotes relating to utilitarian, medicinal or horticultural uses. The guide concludes with a useful bibliography of illustrated publications on South African wild flowers, providing guidelines for further reading, and a index.

Book Synopsis Wild Flowers of Southeast Botswana by : Gwithie Kirby
Download or read book Wild Flowers of Southeast Botswana written by Gwithie Kirby and published by Penguin Random House South Africa. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Review by Alexander McCall Smith: “The beauty of Botswana’s wild flowers is something that always strikes the visitor to that beguiling country. These plants, though, have all the subtlety and delicacy of dry-land vegetation. They are not always obvious and dramatic; they may be tucked away and visible only when one gets up close. Gwithie Kirby’s Wild Flowers of Southeast Botswana is a magnificent introduction to these beautiful plants. This is a book that anybody who visits Botswana will surely treasure.” Wild Flowers of Southeast Botswana features 332 of the most common wild flower species occurring in the region. The species have been grouped into nine sections based on the predominant colour of the flower, and a quick visual guide is provided for quickly locating them. Each species account features simple descriptions of the plant, its leaves, flowers and fruit, as well as attractive colour photographs, icons and simple leaf drawings. A nod to the cultural significance of each flower is provided via inclusion of Setswana common names, as well as a ‘Notes’ box, in which the traditional uses of the plants are provided.
