Stalked felicia

(Felicia petiolata) Witsieshoek - SentinelFlower 25 mm, leaf stalks long, altitude 2560m cf Pooley:KZN p102 < 2250m, and little description of leaves. Sparse information on internet but consistent with low res photo on Red List (von Staden) and with a flickriver photograph by Yakovlev Alexey taken on Sani Pass. However the leaves are not so like other photos of same species on flickriver. CrewNeither do they look like the illustraction in Plant Illustrations. I would not have picked up the ID from here.

Despite this I think I have the correct ID.
