The Cederberg
The Cederberg, a sandstone mountain range in South Africa's Western Cape, is the home of rooibos and almost its only home. This is the canonical account of the region: its location and boundaries, the acid fynbos soil and winter-rain climate that suit the bush, the legume and fire adaptations that fit it to the place, and the geographical protection that has fixed the name to the ground.
