Wow - I seemed to remember something about maths.
Okays - The practise of "Women and children first" was first used not far from Hermanus in 1852. What did it apply to?
I don't think anyone is going to get closer - you're it Ginger - and funnily enough it was found very close to your Outiniqua cache. The plant is callled Erica Georgica
You're on the right track. It is an erica and if it would have been extinct before it had been discovered! The plant found is still growing in the grounds of the George Museum.
But what did they call it?
And we're not jealous!!! No - not me!!
Okay's - keeping it local.
Where the Outiniqua Pass was being renotavted a group of volunteers from the very new South Cape Herbarium went on a rescue mission to save plants from the blasting and bulldozers. As a result a "new" fynbos was discovered and saved. What was it?
