The bright pink flowers of Erica cubica var. cubica are mostly seen in the Langkloof from late winter to some time in autumn.
The photo was taken on the farm Spookberg near Louterwater where many, young, erect plants flowered in January on a recently cleared patch of sandstone derived, loamy soil (Baker and Oliver, 1967; Pooley, 1998; Moriarty, 1997; Bond and Goldblatt, 1984; iNaturalist).
