By their fruit you will recognise them. Do people pick grapes from thornbushes, or figs from thistles.

Matthew 7: 16
A mature Kudu lily in the foreground of the back garden. They have swollen stems and trailing branches armed with spines. The leaves are glossy green with wavy edges.

A Kudu doe.
I took this photo while in the Kruger. Kudu visit this back garden in autumn and winter when it is dry . They eat whatever they can find. This is also the period when the white Kudu lilies bloom.
A bush buck visiting the wild garden today Sabbath. It also enjoys eating the Kudu lily to the left of it. I took this from the lounge window.
Mariepskop at 6,000 feet overlooking Blyde dam.
All good work is done the way ants do things: Little by little.
