Habitat:
Scattered over area, in grass turf.
Notes:
Scattered plants and colonies through the whole area, tolerating mechanical cutting and foot traffic etc. The species appears to have come in over recent years as I do not recall seeing it in the days of the big Horticultural Shows in the 1950s and 1960s. Introduced in grass seed or by other agent(s) from infestations at Heathcote or Cashmere?
