Summary Soil moisture and soil pH determinations were made in the Afroalpine belt of Mt. Kenya between 3,780 m and 4,480 m, and the pH of free water samples was also found. A range of pH tolerance is suggested for some giant species of Lobelia and Senecio , and comparisons are made with other published data.
