Viraali - The Sand Olive or Sticky Hopbush tree


Dodonea angustifolia - An evergreen shrub that grows in rocky outcrops

I was fascinated by the gloss of its leaves. 
I would always find a butterfly or bee hovering around. 
It is used for firewood and for small implements, but is also good as a bee forage and for stabilising and reducing erosion.
