In midsummer, this rare, elusive, and relatively dwarf plant has pendulous, pale blue to pinkish-lilac bells, and other variants in between, and is native to northern and south central Natal. It is rather similar to the small D. trichorrhizum which prefers moister conditions than this species, and which is often found growing in shale and dry grassland.
