Too much heat, too much cold, too much water, too little water Parasite?

What a pity

Hmmm... firstly , proteas do not like to be confined in a container

Yellow Mouse-Whiskers Cleome angustifolia

A very pretty flower

The other ones I don't know without researching, have to find them ...

Ok, I looked up this one and found it:

Momordica balsamina, African Cucumber or Balsam Apple



Indeed decorative

Do you have a photo of the entire plant of no 3, leaves etc?


Wild Lucerne (Monechma divaricatum) looks like this, but I would need to see the shrub

Monechma genistifolium also a good match maybe


Monechma distichotrichum ?

M genistifolium is the most likely and matches the habiat description in the article

African horned cucumber - Cucumis metuliferus ? .

You often see the vines in trees in Kruger .
