Crassula capitella Thunb. subsp. thyrsiflora (Thunb.) Toelken
NE Indigenous

Morphological description

Perennials with herbaceous to woody branches more or less decumbent, with fibrous roots, usually producing several rosettes each with often rather loosely arranged and with spreading or recurved leaves in four ranks or spirally arranged with stems more or less hairy, rarely glabrous. Leaves lanceolate to ovate, rarely elliptic, 10-100(-150) x 4-15 mm, acute and sometimes drawn into a sharp point, usually glabrous except for a dense row of recurved cilia. Inflorescence an elongate to spike-like thyrse with individual dichasia often stalked, with glabrous bracts. Calyx: lobes 1-2.5 mm long, glabrous or sometimes with few marginal teeth. Corolla lobes oblongobovate, each usually with rounded dorsal appendage shorter than the erect not fleshy petal apex. Anthers 0.4-0.6 mm, long. Squamae oblong to transversely oblong, 0.5-0.8 x 0.3-0.6 mm, entire or rarely slightly emarginate. Carpels with distinct styles a third to half as long as ovaries and with small terminal stigmas. Flowering period: (December), January-May. From: Toelken, HR. 1985. Crassulaceae. Fl. S. Africa 14: 1-229. [CC BY]

Annual herb. Stems erect, rarely decumbent, up to 0.1 m high when flowering. Leaves fleshy; in a rosette; blade narrowly ovate to narrowly triangular, 4-6 x 1-2 mm, apex acute, drawn into a sharp point in shade forms, upper surface flat, lower surface convex, glabrous, green to brown. Flowers: in a thyrse with many, sessile dichasia, pedicels short, bracts glabrous; 5-merous; calyx lobes acute; corolla tubular, lobes oblong, ± 3 mm long, each terminal with a rounded dorsal appendage, fleshy, petal apex spreading towards centre of flower, pale yellow to brown; Aug.-Nov.

Diagnostic description

A very variable taxon which is distinguished from a number of similar species by its glabrous sepals which are rarely longer than 2 mm. Several local forms are distinguishable:1. Small plants with usually ovate leaves which are often 4-ranked, at least in the juvenile stage, occur widespread in the Great Karoo. An extreme form with strictly 4-ranked leaves is found mainly in the Baviaanskloof between Willowmore and Humansdorp.2. A glabrous form which was described as C. rhodogyna from south-eastern South West Africa/Namibia.3. A similarly glabrous form but with thick narrow leaves was described as C. nuda from the Little Karoo.4. Another extreme form of the narrow-leaved type reproduces vegetatively by its very brittle leaves which break off at the slightest handling. Often dense stands of these plants are found in the area between Graaff-Reinet and King William's Town and Greytown in central Natal.5. Some plants from near King William 's Town seem to simulate the flowers of subsp. capitella with a stiffly erect corolla, but the petal apex is not very fleshy, and the distinct style and small terminal stigma leave no doubt that these plants should be identified as subsp. thyrsiflora. From: Toelken, HR. 1985. Crassulaceae. Fl. S. Africa 14: 1-229. [CC BY]

Habitat

Growing in a wide range of habitats but usually sheltered by either rocks or other plants. From: Toelken, HR. 1985. Crassulaceae. Fl. S. Africa 14: 1-229. [CC BY]

Dry Grassland; Dwarf Karroid Shrubland. Grassland, sandy or gravelly slopes. From: Retief, E; Meyer, NL. 2017. Crassulaceae.

Distribution

Found in south-eastern South West Africa/Namibia, central Natal, southern Orange Free State and widespread in the central arid and semi-arid areas of the Cape Province and often extending its distribution into dryer parts of high rainfall areas, but absent from the south-eastern parts of the eastern Cape Province.
