In manured places, on the border of sea-weed at the beach, rare.

Flowers in June— July, often immensely richly (tufts of a height 

 of 3 — 4 ctm. and the same diameter may have more than 100 

 flowers), sets abundant ripe fruit. The species prefers manured 

 places near the beach and may here attain a height of until 20 ctm., 

 but appears never in greater numbers of specimens, certainly owing 

 to the scarce bird life.

YelloAvflowered Drabas are very rare within the district exa- 

 mined, and the colour is somewhat paler than farther north (Jaune 3; 

 Lacouture, Répertoire Chromatique, Planche VI) but still unmistakable 

 and can by no means be mistaken for any of the whiteflowered 

 ones. The yellowish colour appearing in Draba Fladnizensis and 

 hirta is secondary (Gelert 1. c), produced by preparation and drying. 

 In nature I never saw any such shade of colour, not even an at- 

 tempt of it. The species flowers sparingly and sets seed only in 

 slight quantities; on the whole it thrives badly within the district
