The biostatus of V. plebeia has often been discussed, most recently by Davidson et al. (2009), who argued that it is indigenous and summarised the views of previous authors on the question. However, V. plebeia appears to have weedy tendencies, being naturalised in Hawaii and Costa Rica (Vincent 1989). V. plebeia is indigenous to eastern Queensland and New South Wales, Victoria, south-eastern South Australia, south-western Western Australia, and northern Tasmania.
