Plant Identification - DONE

[arks]

Many thanks for the compliments, okie and ExFmem.

I really enjoy all the amazing fynbos plants even when I don't know quite what they are, but since I have a fynbos book, I do try to work out some IDs, frustrating tho that can be. And I do know that August/September/October is the best time for flowers, we even have our own excellent wildflower reserve on the farm where I stay in Darling, Waylands Wildflower Reserve -- highly recommended (and I'm only a small bit biased ).

I think this is an Erepsia sp., there are quite a few recorded from the Cape peninsula, such as Erepsia anceps, they look all alike to me, perhaps you find something in your book

Thanks SO much for being so patient with me, Toko You are LOTS better than my book, as most of these don't really look much like the pix in the book. I appreciate your help with these IDs very much and I am learning better how to ID plants for myself, but I fear that I'm rather a slow learner

I agree, arks, Toks is a real star when it comes to plant ID (just as well as all the smaller critters that crawl around)
