New zealand pellitory

New zealand pellitory is a native New Zealand and Australian perennial herb that can be found growing in forests and coastal scrublands on well-drained, calcium-rich soils. The plant's leaves are quite variable. Usually, they are very thin, but in rich coastal soils, they can grow much thicker. Male and female flowers grow on the same plant, so this cultivar can self-pollinate.
