Abygale Aardvark and her Wildlife Friends is a carefully researched
and beautifully presented book for readers of all ages dedicated to
the urgent need to protect and enrich the wonderful wildlife of
Africa. While each of the twenty stories is introduced and
commented on by fictional character Abygale Aardvark, she leaves
the actual story-telling to the real wildlife characters
themselves, so that Aardvarks, Aardwolfs, Giraffes, Hornbills,
Baboons, White-eyes, Impala, Red-billed Oxpeckers, Cape Buffalo,
Red-chested Cuckoos and even Honey-Bees and Termites have a chance
to tell their stories - who they are 'friends with and how they
work together 'for a better life'.
I wonder what tree that is' - if this thought has ever occurred to
you in the Kruger National Park, this book is intended for you.
Virtually no visitor to the Kruger National Park has not, at some
point, become a nature enthusiast once the Big Five hunger has been
stilled. This book is about trees, but has been compiled around
places in the Kruger National Park. It describes 51 species of
trees in rest camps, picnic sites and bird hides as static objects.
When you arrive in a rest camp, at a picnic site or bird hide, the
book will draw your attention to a remarkable or interesting tree.
The small map at the top left of each title page indicates in which
part of the Kruger Park the tree is - the southern, central or
northern region It is only when you have come to see and appreciate
the magnificence of the veld, that you wish you knew more about the
trees encountered along the way... This book is a glorious
travelling companion that introduces you to the characteristics of
specific trees. It accompanies you on your journey from stopping
place to picnic place to rest camp. More than 220 beautiful
photographs in full colour, user-friendly descriptions of 51 tree
species and special anecdotes provide the reader with interesting
general knowledge as well as an insight into the history of the
Park.
Southern Africa has possibly the most beautiful and diverse floral kingdom in the world, but it is also the most polluted and threatened. Agricultural production is under threat from both indigenous and alien weeds and our entire ecosystem is now being seriously threatened by these alien, invasive species. Awareness of these weeds, the regulations involved and possible control measures have become critical factors. Things change in time, more weeds appear and the scope of this edition is extended up into more Central Africa. This then initiated the fourth revised and updated edition, titled Problem Plants and Alien Weeds of Southern Africa.
AMAZING FEATURES
The contents cover more than 800 problem plants of which 433 species are illustrated and their origin, environmental impact and control measures are described. Similar species are mentioned.
More than 900 colour photographs assist with identification, create more awareness and illustrate the problematic nature of plants.
Up-to-date distribution maps show the range in Southern Africa.
The existence of a herbicide registration (in South Africa) is indicated with “H” where applicable, and the latest government regulations (NEMBA categories: 1a, 1b, 2 and 3), as well as biological control, where applicable, are mentioned next to the distribution map.
Introductory chapters cover biodiversity and the threat of alien species; problematic indigenous vegetation including bush encroachment; veld degradation; control and management techniques; biological control; chemical weed control; herbicide resistance, and the threat posed by ornamental garden plants.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Clive Bromilow holds a degree in Applied Biology with a major in Ecology. He has been involved in the agricultural chemical industry all over the world for over 40 years and this has led to a lifelong interest in plants and weeds. His first book Problem Plants of South Africa was published in 1995 and was a huge success. This edition and the subsequent three revised editions were very successful and became reference books on the subject throughout Southern Africa and indeed the world.

DIE OUTEUR: Albert Stegmann Alberts is 'n onkoloog wat 33 jaar lank met kankerpasiënte gewerk het. Hy het gespesialiseer in al die vertakkings van kankerterapie. Hy is die outeur van verskeie internasionale publikasies.
In this book are fifty-two compelling tales that will lead the reader on a journey of discovery of the African continent. It tracks the ancient grail of traditional African medicine or muthi. The journey takes one year, with one story for each of the fifty-two weeks. Many of the stories inherited through Africa’s compelling oral tradition are between these covers: committed to paper for the first time ever.
The ancient African people were the first aromatherapists who well understood the effect of plants on the human body, mind and soul. Innately spiritual, the thousands of lineages of African people across thousands of years have all used plant medicines for healing, always with the blessing of their ancestors.
Knowledge of African plant mythology and its associated healing practices is most certainly a grail because on this great continent we call Africa, knowledge has always been an oral tradition. Because it was never written down, thousands of years of healing wisdom and intelligence have been lost in the transference from one generation to the next.
This book endeavoures to bring to light the deep history of fifty-two of the thousands of indigenous medicinal plants of Africa, before it is too late. The focus is towards Southern Africa because this region is a hotspot of cultural and botanical diversity. Unlike the healing knowledge of other ancient cultures, such as India or China, little of Africa’s healing history is recorded.
As you read the stories about fifty-two of the continent’s prominent indigenous plant cures, the authors hope you, too, will experience some of the magnetism, mystery and wisdom of Africa. They hope it will help you understand a bit more about yourself and about our species: the human being.
This guide is for use in the field by botanists, nature lovers,
eco-tourists, hikers and farmers, for on-the-spot identifications,
making it unnecessary to collect specimens and in this way
depleting the countryside of its beautiful natural heritage.
Features of the title are: Full-colour illustrations and brief
descriptions of 614 species of the most common flowering plants,
succulents and shrublets found in the four northern provinces:
Limpopo, North-West, Gauteng and Mpumalanga. For quick and easy
identification plants are placed in eight major categories of
flower colour, namely white/cream-coloured; pink, yellow/orange,
blue, mauve/purple, red, brown and green flowers. Each plant family
is briefly introduced, where possible giving characters to
distinguish them from each other. English and Afrikaans vernacular
names are included where appropriate. A botanical glossary make
botanical terms more comprehensible to the lay person.

In 'n klein tuin is dit noodsaaklik dat die ruimte deeglik beplan
en ook goed versorg word. Omdat 'n mens met 'n beperkte area te
doen het, verander die ontwerp beginsels ietwat, en kundige,
praktiese gebruik van die beskikbare ruimte is dus essensieel. So
kan 'n tuinpaadjie deel uitmaak van die spasie rondom die swembad,
en as dit 'n bietjie breer gemaak word, is dit sommer terselfdertyd
ook 'n bruikbare patio. Net so kan 'n klein swembad ook 'n water
verfraaiing wees. As die woonplek se boustyl geometries en hoekig
is, is reguit lyne verkieslik, tensy die beskikbare ruimte
voldoende is vir kurwes. 'n Mens kan plante van verskillende
hoogtes langs 'n skutmuur plant, en 'n houer met kleurvolle teen 'n
kantmuur kan 'n swembad of visdam interessant laat lyk. 'n Sitplek
wat natuurlik by die plante in die tuin inskakel, maak te veel
meubels op die patio self onnodig. 'n Kussing wat spesiaal vir die
sitplek gemaak word is boonop gerieflik en sorg vir 'n spatseltjie
bykomende kleur. 'n Klein tuintjie moet te alle tye onberispelik
lyk juis omdat dit nie groot is nie. Dan kan 'n mens dit n sy
geheel dwarsdeur die jaar geniet. Die geheim is om houers en
beddings altyd kleurvol te hou, hetsy met blomme of loof van
verskillend kleure. U plaaslike tuinsentrum sal u met raad en daad
bystaan sodat u klein tuin die hele jaar lank 'n lushof kan wees.
Onthou dat plante, net soos mense, kos en water nodig het, asook
nuwe potgrond en kompos en selfs 'n vars laag bogrond. Geniet u
tuin en mag die hoofstukke in hierdie titel wat handel oor ontwerp,
instandhouding, peste en siektes, houerplante en die reeks plante
wat vir klein tuine geskik is, u nie net inspireer om tuin te maak
nie, maar u ook jare van vreugde in u tuin verseker.

Tuinmaak is deur die eeue 'n baie besondere stokperdjie wat werklik alle aanslae oorleef het en deel geword het van tuiniers se leefwyse. In Suid-Afrika stel tuinmaak in al die streke van ons land unieke uitdagings aan ywerige tuiniers.
Só maak ons tuin - maand in en maand uit verdeel Suid-Afrika in vyf tuinstreke wat ooreenstem met die erkende klimaatstreke. Die maandelikse tuinaktiwiteite in elke streek word behandel in die 'Take vir die maand'ť, wenke word gegee, die 'Mier'ť het besondere boodskappies, 'n 'Plant van die maand'ť word behandel, verskeie tuinmaakaspekte word bespreek, soos komposmaak, snoeiwerk, voeding vir jou plante, peste- en plaebestryding, en ruimte word voorsien vir die tuinier se notas, waarnemings en beplanning.
Tuiniers raak toenemend bewus van die maanstand se invloed op grondvog, planttyd en groeiwyse van plante en dit word elke maand kortliks bespreek. Die aarde-elemente se verband met sterretekens en die invloed daarvan op die tuin word toegelig en tuiniers kan hulleself spieël in die maandelikse tong-in-die-kies sterretekenverklarings.
