#Year1: I didn’t even have a name yet. But I still grew proudly in the Overberg. One day, someone walked past me. She realised that I was nameless. That was 10 years ago – a time when a Trust first started protecting me and my kind. Today I’m known as Hesperantha kiaratayloriae.

#SCROPHULARIACEAE: #Zaluzianskya #capensis
Common name; Verfblommetjie or Drumsticks.
These flowers are closed during the day, opening at dusk; their scent can be very overwhelming and the plant is pollinated by moths.

This weekend I met Pentachaeta fragilis for the first time. Fragile pygmy daisy is a plant of limited distribution and occurs primarily in the southern Sierra Nevada and south Coast Ranges in CA.
