Range and habitatIt is native to the mountains and escarpments of eastern Africa, from Uganda and Kenya in the north to South Africa and Swaziland in the south. In Zimbabwe it is limited to the Eastern Highlands and in South Africa it occurs mostly along rivers in and below the escarpment, and less often in lowveld riparian fringes. It is the only member of the Gentianaceae that reaches tree size in South Africa.[1] References1. ^{{cite book |last1=Schmidt |first1=Ernst; Mervyn Lotter, Warren McCleland; scientific editor, John Burrows; illustrations, Sandie Burrows |title=Trees and shrubs of Mpumalanga and Kruger National Park |date=2002 |publisher=Jacana |location=Johannesburg |isbn=191977730X |page=546}} External links
