Atop of Mount Kenya Senecio keniophytum is one of the endemic groundsel (Senecio) found at high altitudes in Kenya, such as the Afro-alpine zone of Mount Kenya, but not one of the giant Dendrosenecio that also live there.

A creeping perennial whose flowering branches stand "tall" at 4 centimetres (1.6 in) to 13 centimetres (5.1 in) in a land where its relatives can be 1.5 metres (5 ft) tall, tough Senecio keniophytum manages to live in the same locales without dominating the landscape.

[3] Endemic to Mount Kenya, at altitudes of 3,700 metres (12,100 ft) to 4,500 metres (14,800 ft).
