These plants were a welcome sight, as the water on the ground was very muddy. | | Posted Jul 13, 2007 5:30 pm |

Hasn't voted | I'm afraid I can't tell you the name of the plant. We met no people in the area where they were found. I was curious about the name, but no one to ask. | | Posted Nov 8, 2007 10:35 am |

Voted 10/10 | Is it just between those leaves? or it soaks in? hmm.... interesting. | | Posted Jul 10, 2009 4:17 am |

Hasn't voted | The plant is like a bowl. You can usually bend it sideways to get the water from it, but sometimes they broke. At times I drank straight out of them. We were lost for some time in Mt Kenya National Park and those plants were our only source of (non-muddy) water. | | Posted Jul 10, 2009 9:45 am |
