Chamarea capensis

Chamarea capensis is a resilient herbaceous species often found gracing the rocky slopes and sandstone cliffs of its native habitat. Its low-growing, hardy nature allows it to withstand harsh winds, while the small, tubular flowers—typically a vibrant shade of pink or red—entice pollinators. The succulent leaves of chamarea capensis store precious moisture, maximizing survival in dry environments.
