Typical winter scene from hill tops of Grootbos. Cloudy blue skies and a pop of colour, the glistening Silveredge pincushion (leucospermum patersonii) lights up the landscape. #InspireTheFuture. 📷 @Brutanikhul

Clear your head, breath in the fresh air and step into a time gone by on a Grootbos coastal safari, where the ancient Klipgat cave provides insight into the Cradle of human culture. #InspireTheFuture.📷. @LoveWildAfrica

Nature erupts with new life in the most unlikely places… Baboon droppings serve as natural fertilizer to the fynbos and are important pollinators, dispersing seeds as they wander and feed. #InspireTheFuture. 📷 @Brutanikhul

Explore the fynbos on a 4x4 flower safari and learn all about the many properties and medicinal uses of these endemic plants. This ‘Suikerbossie’ or ‘Sugarbush’ produces a nectar that was collected and boiled up as a cough syrup by early Dutch settlers. 📷 @Brutanikhul

Even after 20 years of documenting the botanical species on Grootbos, we haven’t found them all. Lockdown provided a great opportunity for field work and our @GrootbosNGOZA conservation team have recorded an additional 26 plant species on Grootbos bringing the total count to 855!
