Anaxeton arborescens
Anaxeton arborescens, the northern paperposy, is a species of plant from South Africa. It grows in the fynbos biome.
This species is endemic to the Western Cape of South Africa. It is common in the mountains between Table Mountain and Constantiaberg. It prefers sandstone slopes and, while it is most common at elevations of 700–1,100 m (2,300–3,600 ft) above sea level, it has also been found growing lower down on the mountain.
