Fotos / SonidosQuéFlores de Papel (Género Helichrysum)Observ.alandmansonDescripciónIn this vegetation type (Swellendam Silcrete Fynbos FFc1), most of the gently sloping land has been cultivated in the past. In the last two photos, pastures of introduced temperate grasses have replaced wheat on cultivated land on the crests. Fynbos/renosterveld on the steeper slopes appears to be in good condition - protected under the Stewardship Programme. |
