This species is commonly found in the landscape of coastal California, Baja California; We’ve even seen it along the coastline in Swakopmund, Namibia! The plant is native to KwaZulu-Natal in South Africa. The leaves are a recurved downward and are green with a red blush and a reddish-brown margin with sharp -- although mostly soft -- teeth. When planted in ground beds, this species forms large clumps, which explains its widespread use in landscapes. It is unlikely to take significant frost, however. These plants are seedlings in one-gallon pots.
