This species of ''[[Phalaris]]'' was found to have the richest overall [[alkaloid]] content in the investigation of ''Phalaris'' species conducted by Festi and Samorini. It has also been reported (not by Festi and Samorini) to contain a very potent and clean [[alkaloid]] profile, consisting mostly, if not exclusively, of [[N,N-dimethyltryptamine]].
Originally from Portugal, this annual plant's growth habits and cultural requirements are similar to ''[[Phalaris aquatica]]''. It grows most actively during the spring and fall, while resting during the heat of midsummer and the short cool days of winter. It also must be protected from heavy freezes.
