This is the only find of ours for this coastal plant in the
Blue Hills (Unquity Dumpster lower slope). It was never listed
in the initial survey of this and other inland reservations
(Deane 1896), even though there are quite a few historic records
for it in inland Massachusetts, some reaching as far west
as the Berkshires. At the same location, on the
upper slope, we have documented a small patch of
another coastal species (even more strictly coastal!), also
otherwise missing from the Blue Hills: Hudsonia ericoides. Both could be adventive (introduced to BHR).
