Clutia ericoides sparse branches

The straight, stiff branches are mostly sparse in the Clutia ericoides bush as seen in the photo. They are whitish, only green where the long, narrow leaves that mainly stay close and point up, cover them.

The pale-yellow to whitish flowers are seasonally present in about the upper half of the plant (Vlok and Schutte-Vlok 2015; Bond and Goldblatt, 1984; iNaturalist).
