The temperate grasslands of South Africa are called the velds. Just like you know that the temperate grasslands of Canada and USA are the Prairies, Velds belong to South Africa. Velds are rolling plateaus with varying heights ranging from 600 m to 1100 m. The Drakensberg mountains bound them on the east.
Climate
The Velds have a mild climate due to the influence of the Indian Oceans. Winters are cold and dry. Temperature varies between 5°C and 10°C and July is the coldest month. The annual rainfall received here mainly in the summer months from November to February.
