I have the Desert Rose - Impala lily in my garden, Ouhout when you see it now you will recognize it in higher mountain regions.

The South African Dog rose, Rosa laevigata as also the Macartney rose Rosa bracteata that are planted along farm fences in the Western Cape do have their uses and so also the wichuriana hybrid Alberic Barbier that is planted for kms along the roads in the Elgin region. Source

Found the article interesting reading as to how long roses have been around.

Red stinkwood is a tree that is in our local parks, unfortunately due to medicinal properties in the bark one does see the trees being stripped of bark periodically.
