Outstanding example of species:
This tree is the only known example of this species in cultivation in Victoria (1985). It is a native of South Africa where it grows to 40ft in height and easily tolerates wind and drought. The specimen is multi-stemmed, possibly due to the removal of the main trunk at ground level. It is in a healthy condition with an attractive weeping habit.
