Very common around Noordhoek, mostly on aeolian sands or any deep sands really from from quite fine textured e.g. on the Common, to loose sand. Mostly seems to be associated with Strandveld here. Hundreds setting seed at the moment at this locality.

Erica triste?
Die Hel
A mix of Pine plantation and Oak forest planted in Fynbos (with perhaps some Afromontane Forest in the Riveriine area): now heavily degraded fynbos with much invasion of forest trees (and in areas heavy infestation of Rhoicissus). An ideal outdoor laboratory for courses showing a wide variety of aliens, many only recorded here (a start? - the start!) as invasive. Because it does not burn or get mowed it has some quite unique invasives.

It might be this. I am taking the id from the Table Mountain Guide, and hoping like hell that it is a Wahlenbergia not Roella.
