Description
Ageratina aromatica is a perennial (Hall 1993).
Distribution
It is infrequent in west Florida. It is found west to Mississippi, east towards Pennsylvania and Massachusetts (Hall 1993).
Ecology
Habitat
Ageratina aromatica is found in annually burned savannas and annually burned pinelands in poorly drained situations (FSU Herbarium). In addition, it grows in longleaf pine-wiregrass flatwoods and open longleaf pine-scrub-oak-wiregrass savannas, mixed pine-hardwood forests, open oak woods, live oak woodlands, longleaf pine sand ridges, upland woodlands, and rolling red hills (FSU Herbarium). Ageratina aromatica can also be found in disturbed habitat such as roadsides, along fences, and on the edges of fields (FSU Herbarium). This species is observed in a range of shade conditions, from open forest situations to semi-shaded and shady areas (FSU Herbarium). It occurs most frequently in moist sandy loam, dry sand, and areas of lime rock (FSU Herbarium).
Phenology
This species flowers in the fall (Wunderlin and Hansen 2003). It has been observed flowering and fruiting in October and November in particular (FSU Herbarium).
