Cotyledon woodii
Description:
Native to South Africa, mainly occurring in the Western and Eastern Cape. It grows naturally in rocky areas, wooded valleys and sheltered ravines called “kloofs”. These areas provide protection from strong sunlight and wind. The plant is found from the Swartberg Mountains eastwards through the Eastern Cape, including parts of the former Transkei region.
