It occurs in the wet meadows or stone slopes at altitudes between 100 and 200 m. This variety is distinguished from var. licentiana by the plant height 60 – 120 cm (vs. 120 – 180 cm in var. licentiana), rays 3 – 7 (vs. 7 – 11) and 15 – 30 mm long (vs. 30 – 50 cm), and vittae 1 – 3 in each furrow and 4 – 6 on commissure.
