 The shrub grows amongst scrubland in seasonally wet lowland areas of the coastal sandplain between Badgingarra and Serpentine in Western Australia . A little studied species , not much is known of its ecology or conservation biology . Reports do suggest , however , that it is pollinated by a variety of birds and small mammals . Like many members of series Abietinae , it has not been considered to have much horticultural potential and is rarely cultivated .
