' "The whole country affords a fine field for botany, being enamelled with the greatest number of flowers I ever saw, of exquisite beauty and fragrance." So enthusiastically wrote Francis Masson, in September 1773, of the Saldanha and Saint Helena Bay areas. So too agree all who visit the Sandveld - the coastal strip of the western Cape Province, north of Cape Town - in flower-time. And this is a fine field, not only for botanists but for all lovers of nature and of the beautiful. . The flowers of the Sandveld have never before been the subject of a single study. In this book are produced paintings by Hilda Mason . of over 500 of the most spectacular flowers.'.
