Nectarcups (Genus Codon)Observer
alexdreyerDescription
Two very similar Codon species, Codon schenckii and Codon royenii, occur in Namibia. Codon schenckii has bright yellow flowers (not pale yellow) and the flowers are more open (less bell shaped). Codon royenii has pale yellow flowers and the flowers are quite closed or bell shaped.
There has been some speculation that a third Codon species could exist in Namibia which has open flowers with a pale yellow colour - which would make it very similar to this observation.

Otra mas?!... dirán Ustedes, pero no creo cansarme de mostrar la gran diversidad de plantas que tenemos aquí en Nuevo León, muchas de ellas son tan poco conocidas y hay tan poquita información al respecto.
Bueno, en esta ocasión otro miembro más de la familia de las siemprevivas (Crassulaceae), por desgracia otra niña sin nombre,¿alguien tiene una idea?, bueno podemos ve aquí algunos otros miembros de esta familia presentes en Nuevo León:

tapaculo99Description
We got to the third and final hut of the trek in the mid-afternoon, with some time to rest and bird around the hut before it got dark.
Right near the hut there were a few Mulanje Cedars still standing, which probably get some protection from the hut being right there.

Extreme photography
Anisothrix integra is a rare habitat specialist and endemic to the Klein Karoo, where it dangles down from crevices on cliff faces. Taking photos of this plant can be quite challenging - in the last photo Rudi is demonstrating some extreme plant photography

Anisothrix integra gn
Shrublet up to 30cm tall. This plant grows on the sheer and overhanging rock walls high above the watercourse in Tierkloof. I have no idea what veg. type to use. We could find no threats in this difficult environment. You would have to be a rock-climber of note to reach it. It is Redlisted as Rare.
