Heterolepis aliena tasting salt

Heterolepis aliena is at home on rocky slopes. Even right down by the sea will do. This flowering was seen in November at Kleinmond. So close to the high-water mark means that sea spray at high tide and on windy days will bring a salty dose not meted out to inland plants. Still, there appears to be no adverse effects, no suffering here, judging from the flowering performance.
