From sea-level (Colgan), to 1,700 feet near Connor Hill 
(Hart). 
First record in 1806: Mackay Rar. 
In Ireland this plant, probably one of the oldest members 
of its flora, is restricted to Kerry, where it is almost confined 
to the north side of the Dingle peninsula, extending over a 
distance of about twenty miles east and west, with a maxi- 
mum range of six or seven miles north and south. Within 
this area, it occurs often in great abundance especially about 
Connor Hill, its western limit. So far, it has not been found 
west of the Brandon range, nor on the south side of the 
peninsula, except for about two miles on the Dingle side of 
the Connor Hill road, with an outlying station east of 
Anascaul. Elsewhere in the British Isles, it occurs only in 
the south-west corners of England and Wales, while on the 
Continent it extends along the west coast of Europe to the 
Spanish peninsula, the typical distribution of Watson’s 
Ailantic Type plants.

From sea-level, to 2,200 feet on cliffs south of Lough 
Erhagh, Mangerton (R.W.S.), to 2,250 feet on the Reeks 
(Hart), and to 2,900 feet on Brandon (Praeger). 
First record in 1822: G. N. Smith, “ Killarney,”’ p. 53. 
Although strongly calcifuge, this plant may be seen 
growing on the almost bare limestone rocks about the 
Killarney Lakes in several places. Plants with pure white 
flowers are rare in the county, but have been noted near 
Kenmare, Boolteens and elsewhere; pale pink flowered 
plants, however, are not infrequent.
