| Habitat and Ecology: |
North-facing cliffs and broken rocky slopes; seems to prefer areas that attract drizzle and low cloud. Altitude of 500–550 m.
Mat-forming perennial. Leaves obovate, green above, silvery beneath. Phyllaries golden-brown in overlapping rows, obtuse, margins translucent. Flowers unknown. A locally common plant on Samha. Probably referable to Helichrysum but only very old capitula have been seen; more material is required before an assessment can be made. |
