AK 357909; Cultivation Escape. Scattered plants of a blue-flowered clone noted growing amongst kikuyu grass (Cenchrus clandestinus (Hochst. ex Chiov.) Morrone) in modified sand dunes along roadside. Presumably arose from plants grown in nearby residential gardens, though this species was not noted present in any gardens bordering the road. Nierembergia hippomanica, though as yet not widely grown in New Zealand, is a popular garden plant in some parts of the North Island, so further naturalisations are considered likely.
