Osteospermum ilicifolium is characterized, as the specific name indicates, by its more or less Ilex-like, subcoriaceous leaves. The breadth of the leaves varies enormously in one and the same individual as well as in separate individuals. On Table Mt. in the Cape district there are extremely broad-leafed forms with broadly ovate leaves up to 4 cm broad, and in Bains Kloof in the Paarl district extremely narrow-leafed forms with narrowly lanceolate leaves hardly 0.5 cm broad are found. These differences in the shape of the leaves are in this case probably due to the habitat alone. The plant has a strong scent, and at least when dried feels rough from hard, raised points or short, rigid hairs, which are glanduliferous. From: Norlindh, NT. 1943. Studies in the Calenduleae: 1.
