Mowing is suspended in selected green areas through the winter flowering season, so that a wider range of flora, including the daisies, can set seed and propagate.
The demarcated Wildflower Stepping Stones areas are permanently excluded from mowing. They exist so that endangered plants can grow and spread, and so that the pollinators that depend on them survive.
More than 100 plant species have been recorded in the Boschendal Park renosterveld alone, including six threatened species. If you see a demarcated patch looking untidy, that is the point.
