Habitat
''Adoxa moschatellina'' is a perennial rhizome bearing herb of humid brown soils under shade on the banks of rivers and streams, in deciduous woodlands and under hedgerows. It does infrequently grow shaded base-rich localities in uplands. This is a spring flowering species and it dies back after flowering in May or June in low-lying areas. The flowers are self-fertile and this species may reproduce by producing seeds or by vegetative spread. In Britain its altitude ranges from 0 to 1,065 metres on Ben Lawers. The rather plain flowers of ''A. moschatellina'' are pollinated by flies and nocturnal moths which do not rely oin clour to pollinate plants.References:
