Pink Flower


This pink flower is from the Watsonia genus but I don't know the species. You see these flowers growing from the Drakensberg mountains to the Cape.

A water lily (I believe also called a lotus flower although I don't know if it is a different species) growing in one of the ponds in the area. Some water birds were also playing in the reeds but were unfortunately out of sight.

Some species of Protea growing in the fynbos.
