Plants of the Baviaanskloof

Tucked away in the southwestern corner of the Eastern Cape lies a narrow valley, flanked by the Baviaanskloof and Kouga mountain ranges. Named after the chacma baboons that long ago made this 200-km-long kloof their home, the Baviaanskloof is part of the Cape Floral Region World Heritage Site. It is a meeting point of several different ecosystems, with almost all of South Africa's eight biomes represented, making for an exceptional diversity of species, including many endemics.

Plants of the Baviaanskloof describes well over 1,000 plant species. It includes:
- Succinct descriptions of each plant species with full-colour photographs
- Brief family and genus descriptions, and species counts for the area
- An introduction covering the geology, climate and vegetation types of the region
