Caputia scaposa is native to South Africa. It occurs from Badspoort in Klein Karoo in Western Cape to Great Kei River in Eastern Cape, growing on sandstone ledges of sheer cliffs or rocky hills mainly in quartzitic, sandstone-derived soils. Caputia scaposa, formerly known as Senecio scaposus, is a small, nearly stemless succulent that forms tight rosettes of fleshy, bright green leaves with silvery-white woolly covering.
