Description Author(s)/Illustrator(s)
 
Cape Plants is a complete synoptic account of the Cape flora, including ferns and fern allies, gymnosperms, and angiosperms. Keys to families and genera are also included. Species entries include a diagnostic description, flowering time, habitat, and distribution. Species are arranged alphabetically and grouped in natural clusters to facilitate identification. Cape Plants follows the most recent available treatments for all plant groups, and the accounts of several families and many genera have been contributed by specialists in those groups. An introductory essay describes the geology, climate and the physical and floristic characteristics of the flora.
