Description
A forest which is being cut down in Tokai, Cape Town, as the Pine trees are not indigenous to South Africa. I will not go into all the pro/con debate, but it does seem a pity. The native vegetation is wonderful and less thirsty, just not as tall for a cool quiet walk.
I will enjoy it while it lasts!

NOOOOOO!!!! They are not cutting down the Tokai forest for real??? Please tell me it's a joke!!! Gosh Clive - I can absolutely not believe it!!! What a sad image that cries for the lost forest!!

I love the shapes that wood takes on naturally; and not native? At one point the earth was all connected, so EVERYTHING is essentially native.

Hmmm ... not native? An interesting concept. I agree with Denise ... perhaps these pines came from Mars? There's something wonderful about pine straw ... but don't ask a golfer! :P
