Flowering in August: common paperflower
The common paperflower (Edmondia sesamoides) is a common flower that blooms from August to January, according to Common Wildflowers of Table Mountain by Hugh Clarke and Bruce Mackenzie (Struik). It loves open, sunny areas and grows on a lightly-branched shrublet. Table Mountain is slowly but surely changing into a kaleidoscope of colour as fynbos flowers, big and small, begin to bloom. What a pleasure to witness the transformation! Don’t miss out ... Click here to see what else is blooming now.
