It is found in the area stretching from Graafwater to Saldanha and Darling, with an extent of occurrence of 1,063 km². However, the species has already lost 80% of its habitat to crop cultivation, and only five small subpopulations remain. Crops grown in the area include rooibos tea and potatoes. The total population consists of fewer than 250 plants.
