A safe distance from the city….where the concrete ends….in the Silole Sanctuary
Wild flowers & shrubs are in bloom….this is one of the commonest species on the plains Cyphia glandulifera
Shrubs are also in blossom, the most spectacularly obvious being the bright scarlet Pentas parvifolia. The lovely Clerodendrum myricoides is also in flower, as is the blue Plectanthrus barbatus
This is a very common wee blue Pentas sp. common on the plains
Semi-parasitic Cycnium sp. cover the plains like so much tissue paper, both pink & white
This is very refreshing. It reminds us that where buffalo roam, where the lion hunts, there is other beauty. There are lilies of the valley.
