Corymbium

Wikipedia Abstract

Corymbium is a genus of flowering plants in the aster family. It is the only genus in the subfamily Corymbioideae and the tribe Corymbieae. The species are all endemic to the Cape Province of South Africa, where they are known commonly as plampers. The plants produce copious nectar which attracts an assemblage of bees, wasps, beetles, and ants, which likely act as pollinators. Plants of the genus appear to be adapted to wildfire-prone habitat, and have been observed flowering most abundantly after fire.
