Authorde Candolle
DistributionOnly a single specimen at SERNEC appears to be taken from a non-cultivated plant: Brunswick County, water front, Southport; annotated to T. parviflora by Baum and by Crins. The location -- "water front" -- still could mean that the plant was deliberately planted there. Other specimens are from cultivated plants.

Native of southern Europe and northern Africa; in N.A. KS, UT, and WA south to TX and CA; LA, NC.
AbundanceVery rare.
HabitatWater front (by Sound).
Phenologyno data
IdentificationThe inflorescences are dense but short; when well-developed they may literally cover the branches.
