Leucadendron eucalyptifolium, also known as the gum-leaved conebush, is a flowering shrub found in the fynbos region of South Africa. It can be found in various areas of the Western and Eastern Cape, including the Potberg, Riversdal Plains, and Outeniqua Mountains. This shrub can grow up to 4 meters tall and produces flowers from July to October. Interestingly, while the plant is susceptible to fire, its seeds are able to survive and are released after a fire, aided by the wind. The plant is unisexual, with separate male and female plants, and relies on small beetles for pollination. It typically grows in sandy areas at altitudes ranging from 160 to 1400 meters. Its national number is 81.
