Helichrysum milfordiae - 2012 (Helichrysum milfordiae)

I saw this plant growing in the wild at the top of a mountain pass between South Africa and Lesotho. It's in full sun in my alpine bed (with protection from winter wet). Planted two years ago, it's flowering for the first time ready for my Open Garden.

We are thinking of growing more South African plants instead of our tropicals, added to favourites....
