We don't yet have a name for this plant, collected in the Drakensburg Mountains in Lesotho. It makes a matter of bright green leaves, with three or five points on each, above which come the quite large (2.5 cm diameter) silver-white everlasting flowers, which do indeed last for a long time, if not (yet) for ever.
