Description
A description of Pseudognaphalium obtusifolium is provided in The Flora of North America.
Distribution
It is found in medium-sized gaps in a study investigating the interacting effects of overstory removal and ungulate herbivory in a hemlock hardwood forest in Alberta, Michigan.[2]
Ecology
Habitat
In the Coastal Plain in Florida and Georgia, P. obtusifolium can be found in mesic hardwoods, turkey oak scrubs, longleaf pine/scrub oak stands, pine flatwoods, bordering cattail marshes, sand ridges, cypress pond margins, annually burned pine savannas, and annually burned mature longleaf pine-wiregrass communities.[3][4] It can also be found in roadside ditches, and open fields. Soil types include loamy sand, peat soils, sandy loam, and clay soil.[3] Associated species include slash pine, loblolly bay, longleaf pine, wiregrass, Liatris, Panicum, Leptoloma cognata, Polygonella, and Amphicarpum.[3] It has been observed that five to eight years after thinning a longleaf pine stand there was an increase in the frequency of P. obtusifolium.[5]
Phenology
P. obtusifolium has been observed to flower in March and August through October.[3][6]
Seed dispersal
This species is thought to be dispersed by wind.[7]
Fire ecology
Populations of Pseudognaphalium obtusifolium have been known to persist through repeated annual burning.[8]
Herbivory and toxicology
Pseudognaphalium obtusifolium has been observed at the Archbold Biological Station to host wasps such as Cerceris blakei (family Sphecidae).[9]
