Like many attendees I expect, I am looking forward to visiting Kirstenbosch Botanical Garden and other gardens in Cape Town! Laura (cc'd) and I were wondering if there would be interest in an informal edit-a-thon about South African plants during the conference? We could take pictures, add sources, improve Wikidata items, etc etc. 

If there is interest, I can make a page and we can try to figure out a good time. Perhaps as a thematic meetup, during the pre-conference, or just afterwards as a field trip? 

cheers,
