We never got an ID for this plant while we were there. Does anyone know its name? It was winter so it was absent of leaves.

Ronald - Interesting tree/shrub. No idea on the ID - not much of exposure to flora in South Africa.

Ron: Looks like a thorny subject

Lovely, sharp capture of this fascinating plant, Ronald. No idea of the ID I'm afraid but nice to see this.
