Yes, but Table Mountain has ridiculous floral diversity. There are widely considered to be six floral kingdoms [0]: the northern hemisphere, the tropics, Africa and southern Asia, South America, Australia, the Antarctic, and the tip of South Africa. My (probably incorrect) understanding is that each of these is similar to the others in floral diversity.

Fair enough :) Growing up there you never consider it like that.
