Eliphant's Foot (discorea elephantipes)

Post by swifty »

Some pictures of the Eliphant's Foot. This rare plant is said to get up to a 1,000 years old. In some pics I included my camera holder so that one can get an idea of the size of the trunks of these plants. I took the pics in the Tankwa Karoo.
