Succulents of South Africa: A Guide to the Regional Diversity

by Ernst Van Jaarsveld, Ben-Erik van Wyk, Gideon Smith

South Africa has been divided into 16 geographical regions, each with its own succulent gems highlighted and illustrated. Aside from proffering a wealth of information on the plants themselves, this book offers the reader useful advice on places to visit and which routes to follow throughout each region, in order to fully appreciate each area's succulent diversity. The 20 hand-painted plates and the photographs beautifully illustrate this complex and interesting ecological grouping of plants, and the regions in which they grow.
