This is a giant groundsel found only on Kilimanjaro. This unusual plants inhabit the middle altitudes on the Shura Plateau and around Barranco Camp.

One of the most beautiful valleys on Kilimanjaro. The Dendrosenecio kilimanjari palms grow here and cotton is made from them. The plants are found nowhere else on earth and can live hundreds of years
