Description

Silver Aspalathus


Growing in deep sands. Not many species with these broad bracts with flowers in a terminal raceme. The combination of silver foliage and bright yellow flowers makes this a seriously good looking shrub. Growing together with masses of Aspalathus tylodes (see http://www.ispotnature.org/node/849437).
