International Plant Appreciation Day
International Plant Appreciation Day is celebrated on 13 April . Although there is no annual theme, CapeNature will focus on what makes the plants of the Western Cape unique, how they differ from the rest of South Africa and why planting at this time of the year is a good thing.
We encourage more tree planting –contributing to the “plant 1 million trees” campaign. Why not do your part and plant a tree between now and the end of June?
