Field Collection Notes
Locally common in cracks and fissures of basalt and coral makatea. Plants with strictly upright growth habit, and certainly much more extreme than those attributed to this variety from New Zealand (whence comes the type) that I have seen. Flowers rather large from plant and white when fresh.
