Default Re: n. tenax

This is a recently described nep from Northern Australia. It enjoys similar conditions to mirabilis and rowaniae. It grows in similar terrain and there are apparently many natural hybrids between the three species.

I don't have this species at the moment but I have seen that Allen Lowrie has or at least had the seeds on his sales list late last year.

From what I have read it is a small plant to about 30 cm high. Hope this helps you. Cheers.
