there was a huge patch of trees with yellow flowers that the cows seemed to enjoy. anyone know what they're called?

 

HR - at the moment, those yellow flowers are everywhere where there is 'veld'. Even at Killarney! But I have no idea what they are called. The

only other 'yellow flower' I know of, is canola, but I doubt the farmers would have their cows eat that.

Last one - this is Cotton at the back. These two junior scholars raced up Helshoogte!



The dude in front in the yellow jersey is sitting way too low on his bike. Someone should do a proper bike setup with him.

Those are my most hated trees.Angry(Origin Australia which explains it)

They have been a serious problem to the local flora and fauna I might add since I was a lighty in the 60,s.

Between the bluegums,pine and Port Jacksons they are responsible for deteriorating soil conditions,fires,erosion etc.

Wipe them out when you see them.

Also was the cause of my hayfever for years until I moved from the Cape and broke the cycle.
