Centella caespitosa Adamson

In dense hemispherical clumps or tufts up to 50 cm across. Stems woody, much branched, the main branches very short. Leaves crowded, erect, terete, subpungent, glabrous or thinly hairy, 2-5 cm long. Umbels hidden among the leaves. Fruit 3-4 mm long, 4-6 mm wide, flattened, pale-coloured, rather deeply emarginate at the top, slightly narrowed at the base and very shortly stipitate. Mericarps separating very easily, smooth when fresh but when dry with conspicuous curved ridges and deeply wrinkled furrows. Fruit much longer than the bracts, on an erect or reflexed ray about 1 cm long and distinctly swollen in the upper part.
