Scapisenecio pectinatus is a reasonably
widespread native, alpine rosette herb, especially on the
dolerite mountains. It grows on quite wet, peaty soils. The
leaves are very distinctive - they are small (only a few cm
long), pinnately divided almost to the midrib and are curved
upwards (rather like a pasta server).
Scapisenecio
albogilvus was previously known as Senecio
pectinatus var ochroleuchreus and
Senecio albogilvus
