The plants were noticed on the edges as well as in the pans, occasionally in shallow water for a couple of weeks following a good rainy season. The species may eventually prove to be more widespread in the area, as what appears to be suitable habitat is not limited to the specific localities where it was found. However, it is absent from several pans in the area with seemingly suitable habitat, but with different underlying geology. Lower rainfall and higher temperatures may have a negative effect on the species since it seems to be more dependent on moisture than the matrix vegetation surrounding the pans and hence its specific habitat requirements.

), the latter evidently retaining the ability to become long shoots. Nutlets (“seeds”) are not actively released from the plants, but remain in their original position hidden amongst the densely packed leaves of the short shoot rosettes. They are probably released only after a plant has died or when a rosette has withered, a process that may take several years under the arid conditions of this habitat.
