Leucospermum rodolentum habitat

The habitat of Leucospermum rodolentum is coastal sandy flats and lower slopes near the sea on the west coast and northwards to the Namaqualand coastal plain. The plant grows in habitats ranging from dry fynbos and coastal scrub to bare sand.

Three quarters of the plant’s distribution range is also invaded by alien plant species (Manning, 2009; Le Roux, et al, 2005; Manning and Goldblatt, 1996; iSpot; www.redlist.sanbi.org).
