Mesemb at the Walter Sisulu National Botanical Garden

The book, Mesembs of the World by G. F. Smith, et al, published by Euclea Books (1998), divides the mesemb family into 14 distinct groups. This gives structure for easing the navigation through the great variety among thousands of species, facilitating plant identification. This is welcome help to interested parties needing an introduction. Such parties should aim to live long, as there is an enormous amount to master here!
