Cedar of the Baviaanskloof

By Beverley Lilliann Alice Joubert

Widdringtonia schwarzii, the rare Cedar of the Baviaanskloof, clings to life on South Africa's rugged cliffs. This book traces its story - from ancient origins and ecological role to the threats of fire, drought, and climate change. Blending science, history, and local voices, it explores the cedar's decline and the urgent efforts to save it. With insight into fire ecology, conservation strategies, and community restoration, Cedar of the Baviaanskloof is both a field guide and a call to stewardship. A vivid tribute to one of Africa's most endangered trees - and the landscape and people fighting for its future.
