ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The topography, hydrology, geology, oils as well as the climate of the study area are discussed and a map illustrating the boundaries of the area, is provided. Floristic relations between taxa in the Flora of Stellenbosch (FSTE) are examined and compared to those of other areas. Results indicate that the FSTE is richer in taxa than other areas of similar szie. The FSTE in comparison with other areas, possesses the highest number of species per km2. The ranking of families does not differ significantly in comparason to similar ranking for other comparable areas, except that the Poaceae and Cyperaceae is significantly higher ranked in the FSTE than that for the Cape Flora. A systematic list of FSTE is presented as an appendix. AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die topografie, hidrologie, geologie, grondtipess sowel as die klimaat van die studiegebied word bespreek en 'n kaart wat die grense van die area aandui, word voorsien. Floristiese verwantskappe tussen taksa in die Flora van Stellenbosch (FSTE) word ondersoek en vergelyk met dié van ander gebiede. Resultate toon dat die FSTE ‘n groter aantal taksons besit as ander gebiede van dieselfde grootte. Die FSTE besit in vergelyking met ander gebiede, die hoogste aantal spesies per km2. Die rangorde van families verskil nie noemenswaardig van soortgelyke rangordes van ander vergelykbare gebiede nie, behalwe dat die Poaceae en Cyperaceae die FSTE ‘ betekenisvolle hoer rangorde besit as die van die Kaapse Flora. 'n Sistematiese lys van FSTE word as 'n bylae gegee.
