Disa bracteata

[2] This tuberous geophyte that typically grows up to 30 cm (12 in) tall, although there are records of taller specimens.

[3] It is found from sea level to an altitude of 2,000 m (6,600 ft) in Fynbos, Renosterveld and Albany Thicket habitats.

It does particularly well in disturbed habitats, such as roadsides, where it is more common and occurs in higher densities than in undisturbed sites.

[2] At sites where D. bracteata has invaded, there have been up to 80 individuals found per square metre in the area.

[4][9] This species is considered to be of least concern by the South African National Biodiversity Institute (SANBI).
