Searsia angustifolia green buds

The pale petiolules on the upper Searsia angustifolia leaf raise their leaflets higher than the bud clusters grown from the upper leaf axil.

The globose buds are bunched like grapes. Now green, they will turn into yellowish flowers, and on female plants end in fleshy, flattened fruits.

A younger, claw-like bunch of new leaves has emerged at a new branch tip next to the young inflorescence (Coates Palgrave, 2002; iNaturalist; https://hexflora.org.za).
