Habitat:
"Felicia fruticosa is a shrub that flowers profusely and spectacularly in spring. Common names of shrub aster and bush Felicia for it have been encountered. It has an intriguing natural habitat: Two small areas, one in the extreme south-western part of the Western Cape, the other in the north-eastern Soutpansberg area of Limpopo, about 2000 km apart, are noted as the plant’s distribution area! The one area is Mediterranean with winter rain, the other sub-tropical with summer rain."
