Empleurum unicapsulare
Empleurum unicapsulare is a resilient shrub, thriving in the diverse Cape Floristic Region. Its leathery, needle-like leaves withstand dry conditions, while small, yellow, clustered flowers attract pollinators, contributing to its unique capsule-like fruit, a hallmark feature used in species identification. This plant's adaptation to fire-prone habitats ensures its persistence in a dynamic ecosystem.
