Erica bakeri, the Wemmershoek marsh heath, is a plant that belongs to the genus Erica and forms part of the fynbos.[1] The species is endemic to the Western Cape where it occurs in the Wemmershoek marsh. During the 1990s, fewer than 50 plants were identified, but a survey in 2008 found no plants.[2] The plant may still be saved if invasive plants are eradicated and the area is better managed, as some critically endangered species occur here.[3]
