Drie Valleyen and Rondebosch Reserves (307 Recorded Species)
We are actively developing a record of plant species documented across the Drie Valleyen and Rondebosch Reserves. The collection reflects the rich ecological diversity of the landscape, encompassing fynbos, thicket, grassland, forest, wetland, and transitional habitats.
More than a species inventory, it serves as a living record of the Reserves' ecological health and ongoing regenerative journey. The catalogue supports biodiversity monitoring, regenerative land stewardship and planning, while highlighting the remarkable variety of indigenous flora that contributes to the resilience and functioning of these ecosystems.
Species are recorded with reference to habitat, growth form, and seasonal characteristics where available, providing a valuable resource for researchers, conservation practitioners, landowners, and visitors alike.
Please note that this section is currently in preparation. At this stage, only the Flora List is available.
