Agathosma glabrata, an endangered species native to the Cape Floristic Kingdom in Cape Town. A member of the citrus family (Rutaceae), many of which are known for having aromatic foliage (this one included). This is not the species used to make buchu tea, btw (that's typically Agathosma betulina)
I'm a bit concerned because I had to cut the plant back quite hard – fynbos can be a bit finicky about pruning. But since these bits were going to wilt anyway, I thought I'd try to root them to try and have a backup. Hold thumbs the mother plant doesn't die! 😬 They take quite a while to root; I just put it in water for now, but I'm probably going to dip it in rooting powder and move it to perlite.
Second guessed myself trying to figure out where to cut it since there are leaves all along the stems!
