Distribution

Limited to the eastern part of the distribution area of the genus, from George to Port Elizabeth and very frequent along the southern Cape- and Tsitsikamma coastal plain and mountains. The population at Ladismith (type locality) is rather isolated, but similar forms of the species occur in the northern (drier) localities, e.g. the Langkloof area. The species is extremely variable, and at least two other forms may be distinguished: around Baviaanskloof and Port Elizabeth (pale pink flower with dark purplish-red pollen guide) and the widespread Tsitsikamma and southern Cape form (rose-violet or violet-purple flower, with dark purple pollen guide).
