Following on from a sighting by RAllen. Growing in Poa tussock in snow gum woodland with brachyloma and tea tree. High forb diversity. Under canopy (burnt) on edge of swamp where the ground is just above the inundated swamp. Dark sandy loam. Approximately 50% of the plants had been pollinated, particularly those that were more exposed.
