Description
Hypericum hypericoides is a perennial shrub species.
Distribution
Ecology
Habitat
H. hypericoides occurs in wet or moist loamy soils and semi-shady to open light conditions (FSU Herbarium). It can be found in annually burned longleaf pineland, wetland depressions, limestone glades, and by ponds (FSU Herbarium). However, it also appears in disturbed areas including roadsides, open fields, and pine plantations (FSU Herbarium).
It has been associated with areas that are heavily logged, herbicided for woody plants, and burned several times, as compared to unlogged areas that are selectively herbicided for hardwoods and infrequently burned.[1]
Phenology
Flowering has been observed in March and September, while fruiting has been observed in September (FSU Herbarium).
Seed dispersal
Seed bank and germination
Fire ecology
