The flowering plants of South Africa; vol. 5 by I. B. Pole Evans is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. It showcases hand-coloured plates with formal botanical descriptions of indigenous South African flora, emphasizing diagnostic features, distribution, and ecology. Aimed at botanists and horticulturists, it blends taxonomy with cultivation notes, local names, and occasional remarks on usefulness or toxicity. The opening of this volume begins with a dedication to the Cape mountain plant collector Thomas Pearson Stokoe and proceeds through a sequence of plates with notes on each species. The featured plants span many families and habitats, including succulents (Cotyledon, Crassula), multiple Aloes (from the economic A. ferox to the showy A. marlothii and A. rupestris), irids (Gladiolus, Lachenalia), orchids (Lissochilus/Eulophia), proteas (Leucadendron, Protea), and distinctive outliers like the parasitic Sarcophyte sanguinea and the epiphyte Dermatobotrys. Each entry pairs an illustration with concise history and identification, habitats and ranges, collector attributions, and practical or economic notes—such as aloes extraction, livestock poisoning, cultivation ease, and notable rediscoveries—giving a compact, plate-by-plate survey of South Africa’s flowering plants.
