You're absolutely right - this photo doesn't look like a flower reserve. That's a little green moss on the left, and Kerry-Anne on the right. :)

We took a drive around the back of the little town of Paarl and along a dirt road to the Meulwater Wild Flower Reserve (map) that overlooks Paarl. The reserve has a small parking area with a spot for people to picnic and even has a few formal braai spots.

In my next couple of posts I'll show you a few more photos taken in the reserve's small well-kept garden.
