Kind of reminds me of the rainforest on the lower elevations of Mt. Kilimanjaro. Where is the photo taken?

Then you should be a big supporter of protecting public lands.

I wonder if San diego could grow the plants in the picture…they look like they would hate a dry climate even thou there are some remarkable plants from that region. Depending on the location and elevation you could get some of them to grow…The giant rosette plants Lobelia wollastonii and Dendrosenecio johnstonii are found on both the Rwenzoris and the Virungas, whileLobelia stuhlmannii grows only on the Virungas.

From wikipedia…Ericaceous forests form a transition zone between the montane forests and alpine moorlands, extending up to 3800 meters. Erica arborea is the dominant species.^[2] The ericaceous vegetation varies in growth habit, in places forming a dense forest of single-trunked trees, thickets of multi-trunked shrubs, or open shrubland reaching only 1 meter high. The ericaceous forest supports many epiphytes.^[3]

^{Here is a picture of my Erica arborea picture was taken 10 days ago.}

Pretty sweet picture T.Rob. Agree that this looks a lot like the slopes of Kilimanjaro. Anyone ever try to grow stuff like this?

Palm Crazy nailed it - Rwenzori Mts. in South West Uganda. Specifically, the Bujuku Valley, altitude 12,100'.
