Othonna dentata lavish vertical growth

This Othonna dentata plant is growing robust, erect branches, lush at the end of a rainy winter by the sea at Vermont near Hermanus.

Its pale green to blue-green leaves are fairly narrow with smooth margins, differing from the broader, toothed and red-rimmed leaves that this species may also produce. The stems, partly woody lower down are fleshy higher up like the thinly succulent leaves (Mustart, et al, 1997; Bean and Johns, 2005; Burman, 1985).
