Hábitat: endémica de La Gomera, Tenerife y Gran Canaria. Crece sobre sustratos geológicos antiguos, ocasionalmente por basaltos antiguos. Vive en cantiles, grietas y andenes con algo de suelo, pero no es una especie estrictamente rupícola (rocosa), desarrollandose bastante bien en piederiscos donde los suelos son bastante toscos y el drenaje muy eficaz.
