Australian Plant Name Index (APNI)
×
The Australian Plant Name Index (APNI) is a tool for the botanical community that deals with plant names and their usage in the scientific literature, whether as a current name or synonym. APNI does not recommend any particular taxonomy or nomenclature. For a listing of currently accepted scientific names for the Australian vascular flora, please use the Australian Plant Census (APC) link above.

APC Comment:
Widely cultivated and becoming naturalised. Two records from Rodondo and Craggy Islands in Bass Strait are considered by S. Harris, Tas. NPWS (pers. comm.), as possibly of relict natural occurrence. The taxon also occurs on mainland Tas., where it is clearly naturalised from cultivated plant escapes.
