Brits is a farming and industrial town on the Crocodile River, with irrigated fields, citrus and smallholdings all around and the Magaliesberg to the south. Bushveld thorn trees, karee and wild olive grow on farm edges, and the river banks carry willows, gums and invaders such as syringa and black wattle. Gardens near Hartbeespoort and Schoemansville often have big trees on steep stands above the water. Summer is hot with thunderstorms, and frost is light in winter.
