Grasslands are quietly disappearing — despite being massive carbon stores and bastions of biodiversity. Scientists say restoring wildlife — like elephants, giraffes and rhinos — is key to saving the world's grasslands. conservation.org/blog/study-…

Our #PlantofTheWeek, Watsonia strubeniae, is a charming grassland geophyte endemic to Mpumalanga. Known for its tall spikes of pale pink autumn flowers, it thrives in sunny, well-drained soil, making it an ideal garden plant.
