About

Lepidium phlebopetalum, commonly known as veined peppercress, is a plant of the Brassicaceae family that is endemic to parts of Australia.

Where it grows

Lepidium phlebopetalum are often located in arid and semi-arid regions, in relatively bare sites with crusting red clay loam soils. They are found mainly in Western Australia, Northern Territory, South Australia, Queensland and New South Wales. Listed as Endangered in Victoria, there have only been some recorded sightings in the far northwest region. It becomes abundant after rain and the flowers are present most of the year depending on the region, with an influx of blooming in spring.
