Each year, the sunburnt and barren semi-desert Namaqualand landscape of open plains and harsh granite outcrops bursts into a kaleidoscope of brilliant colours with the first rains of spring. Namaqualand is the most arid area in the world rich in bulbiferous flora with some 3500 species of plants, of which over 1,000 can be found only here. Most of the flowers belong to the different species of daisies.
