arboretum contains many naturally occurring tree species such as
white stinkwood (Celtis africana), river bushwillow (Combretum
erythrophyllum) and common hookthorn (Acacia caffra).

and many different species have been planted recently.
An interesting addition to the arboretum are the deciduous plough-breakers
(Erythrina zeyheri) which have very large underground stems
with only the leaves, flowers and fruits held above the ground.
