    Something of the glandular hairiness of the Erica glandulosa plant is visible in the photo, particularly on the stubby, straight leaves. The specific name, glandulosa, refers to these characteristic glandular hairs.

    The flower tubes are shiny and curved.

    It is thought that this plant is E. glandulosa subsp. glandulosa (Baker and Oliver, 1967; iSpot).
