Bush refers to any sparsely-inhabited region, regardless of vegetation.
In South Africa, the term has specific connotations of rural areas which are not open veldt.
Generally it refers to areas in the north of the country that would be called savanna. "Going to The Bush" often refers to going to a game park or game reserve like Entabeni and Pilanesberg.
Southern Africas Cape Floral Region is one of the richest areas for plants in the world. While the Cape Floral Region covers less than 0.5 percent of Africa, it is home to nearly 20 percent of the continents flora. The giant protea, South Africas national flower, is found in the Cape Floral Region.
