Notes

Potentially threatened by development. Possibly threatened by fire suppression and road maintenance. Plant appears to be widely scattered but uncommon everywhere, and most collections are old; needs field surveys. See Proceedings of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences 11:124 (1876) for original description.
