This photographic showcase features the rich and unique wild flowers of the Cape and opens with a portfolio of colourful representatives of the region's floral wealth. The flowers presented are grouped together according to geographical regions, beginning in the north-west near Niewoudtville, then moving southwards towards Cape Town and then eastwards as far as Port Elizabeth. Unique families are included, among them the Proteas, Ericas, Mesembranths, Bruniacea and amaryllas. Following upon the photographic portfolio the author explores this flora, the reasons for its uniqueness and variety and types of vegetation associated with the different areas. He looks at the role that fire plays in generating a range of otherwise dormant species and the effects of rainfall and other climatic factors on the type of flora in each area. Also discussed are the interrelationships between the flowers and other living forms, such as birds, insects and mammals.

The Cape is one of the botanical world's richest treasure houses. After an overview, All about flowers, the guide examines the indigenous plants of eight different regions. The text is supplemented by many special-interest panels, and the text is highly visual, with plenty to draw the eye on each spread. Each chapter ends with a picture gallery of the more common, interesting and beautiful plants in each area. Besides the floral wealth of the region, the focus is on matters of general tourist interest regarding what to see and do.
