 de la Sta. Cruz, in fruit Feb. 9, 1897; by Dusen in N. and E. Fuegia. 



"Abundant from Valparaiso to Magellan, but confined to a narrow 

 oblique belt. In the Northern part of its range it is chiefly west of the 

 Andes ; in the Southern part it is Eastward, thus avoiding equally the 

 wet, cold, stormy latitudes of Southwest Chili and Fuegia, and the arid 

 plains of Patagonia." (J. D. Hooker.) 



"Belongs to the steppe-flora; and usually grows in thickets formed by 

 Chiliotrichum difftisum and Baccharis patagonica ; but it avoids parts of 

 the steppes which are free of shrubs." (Dusen.)

Stems few, simple, 2-3-flowered. Leaves rhombic-cuneate, denticulate.
