Where it grows wild

Open grassland, scrub and sparse forest on hill and mountain slopes, often on rocky or sandy soils. Details are from the genus and limited published descriptions; field data are thin.

The climate site was placed from the region, at about 230 m; wild populations are reported higher on mountain slopes, so they are likely a few degrees cooler.
