    Leucospermum rodolentum leaves

    Leucospermum rodolentum leaves
    Author: Ivan Lätti
    Photographer: Retha Wareham

    The leaves of Leucospermum rodolentum are grey and velvety from a fine covering of short, crisped, silver-grey hairs. The elliptic to wedge-shaped leaves become up to 6 cm long, but mostly well short of that. There are usually three to six teeth at the leaf tip, sometimes just one; the leaf base tapers, but has no petiole. Many leaves on the plant photographed for this Album are rounded with hardly one tooth at the tip (Manning, 2009; Le Roux, et al, 2005; Manning and Goldblatt, 1996; Coates Palgrave, 2002; iSpot).
