Based on Georgiades (1995).
Alien: Casual. Roadsides & waste ground; sea-level to 1000' - scarcely more than an adventive in Cyprus, and no sites listed for Division 3 [Given the taxonomic confusion mentioned by Stace, note that Meikle also list P. dioica (planted tree) and P. pruinosa (native, with many sites but all in Division 2).
As the species is not established introduction pathways are indicated in case of possible/potential escape from confinement.
