Plants of O. etendekaensis in their natural habitat (low-growing shrublets in foreground), Etendeka Mountains, Namibia. The plants grow in stony soil and scree derived from basalt of the Etendeka Group, Karoo Supergroup. This section of the Great Escarpment lies to the east of the Namib Desert, about 50 km from the Atlantic Ocean coastline. The climate is very arid, with an average annual rainfall of about 100 mm.
