Cineraria geifolia, the sea cineraria, is a sprawling perennial that branches much, scrambling to 60 cm in coastal bush. The plant often grows in sheltered spots, on dunes and among rocks in sandy soil. The distribution is limited to the southwestern Cape from around Saldanha to the De Hoop Nature Reserve. It is commonly found on lower slopes of Table Mountain (Manning, 2007; Clarke and Mackenzie, 2007; Mustart, et al, 1997).
