Women used to adorn themselves with these fragrant flowers in Spanish colonial times; because of the intricate structure of the inflorescence, women hid and carried secret messages important to the independence cause under it.[6] The plant has become wild in the cool rainy mountains in Sierra del Rosario, Pinar del Rio Province in the west, Escambray Mountains in the center of the island, and in Sierra Maestra in the very west of it. Invasive speciesBeyond its native range H. coronarium may be invasive in shallow water systems, along streams and in waterlogged areas where once established, it is difficult to control due to vegetative reproduction through underground spread of rhizomes.[5] It was introduced in Brazil in the era of slavery, said to be brought to the country by African slaves who used its leaves as mattresses and is now considered naturalised in the states of Rio de Janeiro (where it is classed as invasive), Bahia and Espirito Santo.[5][7] This species was first introduced as an ornamental to Hawaii around 1888 by Chinese immigrants and is now considered a serious invader in mesic to wet areas of Maui and Hawaii island.[8] It is also invasive in South Africa, where it is a declared weed and propagation of plant material is considered prohibited,[9] and in New Caledonia.[10] See also
