About this work

Description

South Africa. National flower of South Africa. Of particular interest is the antiquity of this family, for it is found in Australia, South America and South Africa, so evolved on Gondwanaland before it separated into its present continents. No medicinal or culinary uses. Photographed in the Medicinal Garden of the Royal College of Physicians, London.
