is known from two localities in Soon Sakesar valley, Salt Range, Punjab province, Pakistan. The area is protected for security purposes. We and other botanists have collected the species from the type locality twice in the current decade. The species is critically endangered due to the fact that its EOO is very small (Table

), and that it is confined to a comparatively small mountain range. Expanding human population coupled with anthropogenic activities are a serious threat. We have grown living plants in NARC, Islamabad. This indicates that this species could potentially be conserved outside its native range.
