Ecology
Habitat
In the Coastal Plain in Florida, D. feayi can be found in pine/oak sandhills; open oak scrubs; thinly wooded longleaf pine/live oak ridges; and Pinus clausa/Ceratolia scrub with Sabal etonia and Bumelia lacuum (FSU Herbarium). It has been found in human impacted areas such as roadsides, recently planted citrus groves, disturbed xerophytic oak-sand pine scrubs, and bulldozed slash pine/oak scrub. It has been found growing in Paola (Spodic Quartzipsamments) soil (FSU Herbarium).
Associated species include Quercus chapmanii, Paronychia erecta, Calamintha coccinea, Liatris provincialis, Dalea feayi, Polygonella robusta, Heterotheca subaxillaris, Pityopsis, Licania michauxii, myrtle oak, and sand pine (FSU Herbarium).
