occasional in wasteland in chch will get more common.
Firm ribbed leaves that felt like they'd cut me rather than snap when I bent them. Very rough to touch. I presume the stem with leaves up it will be a flower spike. These leaves were approx. 1.5m tall drooping to make the plant look about 1m high. No discernable smell. A few plants seen over 1.6km walk, all along the path edge.
