Syncarpha vestita (Cape Snow or Cape Everlasting) is a robust, woolly shrublet native to South Africa's Cape Provinces. It grows up to 1m tall, featuring silvery-grey foliage and papery, bright white bracts surrounding a central, purplish floret cluster, which bloom from November to January (summer). 
Key Details:
Appearance: A much-branched shrub with soft, woody stems and leaves covered in white-felted hair.
Flowers: "Everlasting" flowers. The white papery bracts close at night or during overcast weather to protect the tiny central florets.
Habitat: Commonly found on rocky slopes and sandy flats in the fynbos biome.
Growth: Fast-growing but short-lived (less than 10 years).
Common Names: Cape Snow, Sewejaartjie, Tontelblom.
Syncarpha vestita thrives in full sun and is well-adapted to rocky, nutrient-poor soils.
