Avonia papyracea is a South African endemic. The typical Avonia papyracea are present in the Little Karoo and Great Karoo (Eastern Cape). Subsp. namaensis occurs in the Richtersveld, southern Namibia and Bushmanland. Avonia papyracea grows in full sun among quartz rocks. The unique white scales reflect much of the light and act as sun-shades over the tiny leaves beneath.
