I worry though that our country doesn't protect our natural heritage nearly enough. We're having huge problems protecting our environment up at the West Coast National Park, for example, where Langebaan Lagoon is at severe risk of losing it's Ramsar status, due to the heavy industry at Saldanha polluting the lagoon. There doesn't seem to be one controlling organization that actually has the clout to take action and oversee our precious heritage. The floral kingdom is really something special.
