Treatment

Atriplex hortensis View in CoL L.

Distribution

Some specimens of this species are known in the northern territories, for example, Sverdlovsk Region ( SVER!) and Bashkortostan ( LE!). In the steppe zone, A. hortensis needs a freshwater irrigation and the salinisation effect is damaging the seed germination of the species, thus making its spontaneous occurrence difficult.

Notes

This species was reported as occurring in large populated places of Orenburg Region ( Iljin 1930, Ryabinina 1998, Knjazev 2009), but no specimens were seen. Nevertheless, it may be found as cultivated in gardens as an ornamental plant.
