Fynbos, the Cape Floral Kingdom

The southern coast of South Africa is known as the Cape Floral Kingdom, due to the unique flora of the area – known as the fynbos. We read that up to 30% of the plant species here are endemic, which is to say that they occur nowhere else on earth. The best fynbos we saw was at De Hoop NR, and on the Cape Peninsula.
