Can any body help to identify the following two plants? They are to be found in the N.Cape / Richtersveld area.
I have tried to add them as an attachment to this post but cannot get it right, so I have placed them on - "http://www.alib.co.za/whatplant.html"
Thanks
Any botanists out there?

Hi Dadz Toy BFI,
Many thanks for posting the photos. I sure tried but my computer just hung up on me, in spite of resizing the pictures.

Thnaks Piet,
But I'm sure it is Pachypodium lealii - pictures on the web are identical to my photo and the locality is correct.
