These flat-topped small peaks and larger tablelands are ferricrete caps often associated with clayish soils on the slopes. They are often the home of Aloe ferox and A. arborescens. Sometimes there are grassy patches and pressure bursts of bare clay. H. magnifica and H. serrata occur in this kind of situation. However, these ferricrete sills are also north of the Langeberg mountains, where species like H. emelyae and H. bayeri may occur.8053 looking at RooivleiKG36-70 looking northwards7821 looking northwardsLooking from Swartrug towards Riversdale.Looking from Morning Star to Kransrivermond 097This is a picture taken from a very late flowering population of H. maculata near Die Nekkies resort south of Worcester.
