Leucadendron brunioides, the foetid conebush, is a species of plant in the family Proteaceae. [3] It was first described in 1856 by Carl Meissner. [2]
Leucadendron brunioides is endemic to sandy flats and shrublands of South Africa. The species survives wildfires. Flowers are dioecious and pollinated by insects. [1]
There are two varieties recognized under L. brunioides. [2]
Leucadendron strobilinum, commonly called the peninsula conebush, is a plant species in the genus Leucadendron—forming part of the family Proteaceae. Confined to the Cape Peninsula, it reaches a height of up to 2.6 metres growing in southern, damp rocky slopes at an elevation of 500 to 1100m. Its conservation status is Near Threatened—a result of inappropriate fire management, fire-break clearing and alien plant invasions.
Leucadendron laureolum, common names golden conebush and laurel leaf conebush, is a species of plant in the family Proteaceae. It is endemic to South Africa and also cultivated. It is a large bush that turns bright yellow in the winter flowering season.
Leucadendron salignum, also known as the common sunshine conebush, is an evergreen, dioecious shrub that produces several stems from the ground of up to 2 metres high; forming part of the genus Leucadendron from the family Proteaceae. It survives the wildfires that occur every one or two decades in the fynbos where it occurs by regrowing from an underground rootstock. Pollinated by beetles, it flowers from April to November. The winged seeds remain in the woody cones until they are released after a fire, and are distributed by the wind. It is possibly the most common Proteaceae species in South Africa, and can be found in the Northern Cape, Western Cape and Eastern Cape provinces. Its current conservation status is Least Concern.
