Leucadendron laxum stem-tips
Author: Ivan Lätti
Photographer: Thabo Maphisa
The ascending, linear to needle-like leaves are densely clustered at Leucadendron laxum stem-tips. The leaves are yellow-green, their pointed tips may remain pinkish purple for a brief period, as on the plant in the photo (Bean and Johns, 2005; Manning and Goldblatt, 1997; INaturalist).
