Hi Dave
Thanks for visiting Plantbook.
The Kirstenbosch Nursery should be able to help you with plants and will be able to give you details of the seed bank should you require seeds.
Flourish!

I’m looking for some erythrina humeana plants or seeds. I live in Cape Town.
Do you perhaps know where I may obtain some?
