Luckily there was only a single RG observation of this species outside NZ, have corrected that one. Will correct all the non-NZ needs ID ones now too
Thanks! Lots of other NZ endemics have similar problems, but this is definitely one of the worst.
All non-NZs gone
Hurrah! Let's see how long it will take to fill up again.
As far as I know, this plant is not cultivated outside of New Zealand. So all observations elsewhere are probably misidentified.
