Ecology

Habitat

V. dentatum has been found in natural ecosystems such as upland mixed woodlands, deciduous forest mountain slopes, mesic pine-oak woods, calcareous magnolia-maple-oak forests, coastal hardwood hammocks, wooded swamps, floodplains, and streambanks. It will also occur in areas altered by human disturbance such as forest edges, roadsides, and vacant lots. V. dentatum is not picky about light or drainage conditions, and it will tolerate shade to full sun and wet to dry environments.[1]

Associated species include Acer rubrum, Arundinaria tecta, Carex lonchocarpa, Carpinus caroliniana, Cicuta maculata, Commelina virginica, Dicliptera brachiata, Liquidambar styraciflua, Liriodendron tulipifera, Micranthemum umbrosum, and Nyssa biflora.[1]
