Top of hill sandstone hill with sand covered in small sandstone stones.
At least 25 plants seen in area 7mx7m.
Here are separate observations of similar plants within 5 m of each other. https://www.inaturalist.org/observations?on=2024-01-14&place_id=27444&taxon_id=82268
most plants flowering had the flower fallen off.
Sand was very wet, There had been about 100 mm of rain a few days previously, measured about 1km away in my garden.
see other observations which may be the same species on sandstone or sand in Serowe.
