    Pentzia incana leaves

    The strongly scented leaves of Pentzia incana are divided into short, stubby, finger-like lobes. The leaves are rich in an oily substance giving the plant its fragrance. Leaves are grey-green, hairy and grow on pale young upper stems. A leaf becomes 10 mm long and 5 mm wide (Vlok and Schutte-Vlok, 2010; iSpot).
