Cape flowers in March?

Peter, How long did that drive take you? We're vaguely thinking of doing that trip,
we want to see Welwitschia in Namibia. Was March/April a good time, or would September
be better, was there a particular reason you chose March?
Did you rent a car in Windhoek and leave it in Cape Town?
Thank you for any information.

Diane, I did the trip in March/April 2007, from Botswana, Namibia to Cape Town. Nieuwoudtville was very dry, it didn't rain for about eight months. I didn't see >any bulb, only dust :-(. South Africa was much better, Amaryllis belladonna,Haemanthus and between Clanwilliam and Citrusdal just besite the road (leftside) a
lot Brunsvigia oriëntalis in flower.
