In Memoriam
It is with sadness that Briza announces the passing of botanist, author and photographer Pitta Joffe, after a long illness. Pitta was the author of Easy Guide to Indigenous Shrubs and Creative Gardening with Indigenous Plants, and the principal photographer on Making the Most of Indigenous Trees. Working as a botanist, Pitta was dedicated to teaching South Africans about the diversity and potential of our indigenous plants. Creative Gardening with Indigenous Plants (published by Briza in 2001 and revised in 2012) has become a standard reference work and has inspired and guided countless gardeners and landscapers on the use of indigenous plants in the garden. Pitta's legacy will continue through her books and collection of photographs (now part of the SANBI photographic library).
