Erica glomiflora var. glomiflora leaves

The hairy leaves of Erica glomiflora var. glomiflora grow scattered up the young stems. Short and oblong, the leaves have margins that are rolled under. There is a whitish gap below from denser hairs on the lower surface.

The yellow-green leaves at stem-tips ascend, the dark green ones slightly lower down spread (Vlok and Schutte-Vlok, 2015; Manning, 2007; Moriarty, 1997; iNaturalist).
