Wild flowers in the Baakens Valley

A bunch of us walked the lower Guinea Fowl Trail from the 3rd Avenue Dip down to Settlers Park the other day.  I was absolutely amazed at the amount of wild flowers in bloom along the trail.  Although I have been on sections of the trail before and have done the mountain bike trail years … Continue reading Wild flowers in the Baakens Valley →

Coastline flowers

Walking along the Sacramento Trail outside Port Elizabeth this time of year you get to see a lot of different flowers along with fantastic views of the coastline.

Settlers Park flowers

Last Friday I posted a pic of a field of lilies taken at Settlers Park.  Next to the lilies were some yellow flowers and today's post shows them up close.

Flowers at Bucklands

Going around Bucklands Game Reserve on our game drive I realised the impact that all the rain we received during the winter had on the surrounding landscape.  The veld is green and there are flowers everywhere.

Field of lilies

The arum lilies are in full bloom, doesn't matter if you go to Schoenmakerskop, the Baakens Valley or Settlers Park.  I found these lilies just next to Settlers Park's How Avenue parking area.

Lilies to celebrate Spring Day

Today is Spring Day.  The winter is over.  On the calender at least.  From here on the days will be getting longer and warmer as summer approach.  I took the picture of the lilies at the Morgan Bay Hotel on the Wild Coast and while editing my pictures I was playing around with some of … Continue reading Lilies to celebrate Spring Day →

Aloe on Walmer Boulevard

I recently posted a picture of the flowering coral on Marine Drive, but I can't resist posting one I took last week of the coral aloe on Walmer Boulevard in South End.

Coastal flowers

Driving around Port Elizabeth to get pictures of some of the trails the other day, I naturally stopped at the Sacramento Trail as well.  Time was very limited so we just did the first couple of hundred meters for some shots and this is one of the pics that came out of that.

Free State roadside flower

Driving through the Free State there isn't always very much to see immediately next to the road, so stopping at roadworks doesn't really mean that you can sit back and enjoy the scenery.  Or can't you.  Right next to the road was a strip of greenery with these very interesting little orange flowers blooming in … Continue reading Free State roadside flower →
