Erica oblongiflora, the Agulhas green heath or sticky green heath, is a plant belonging to the genus Erica and is part of the fynbos.[1] The species is endemic to the Western Cape.[2] Here it occurs on the southern part of the Agulhas Plain to Cape Infanta. There are three subpopulations occurring in an area of 479 km². This area has been reduced due to encroachment of plants such as Acacia cyclops and grazing by livestock. The population at Infanta is threatened by coastal development.[3]
