Description

Photo taken by Derek Odendaal of the HAT of the MCSA/Outramps. His description - Altitude 1298 m. The site is about 60 m west of the summit beacon. It is rather flat with sedges, short grass, many Watsonias and some Mimetes. A community of about 10 plants in close proximity. I looked out for more of these plant when going down (northern slope), but saw none. The plant is low growing, about 300 mm high with dense stems. The stems with leaves are between 10 and 12 mm in diameter and rather firm.
