Taxonomic Notes

Synonyms: Eryngium baldwini.[2]

Varieties: none.[2]

Description

Eryngium baldwinii is a dioecious biennial or perennial that grows as a forb/herb.[1] It is aromatic, is low, and creeps along the ground. Leaves are 7 cm long and 2.5 cm wide and can be shaped as ovate, oblong, lanceolate, entire, dentate, cleft or pinnatifid. Flowers are dark to light blue 8 mm long and 4 mm wide.[3] Branches are 1.5-5 dm long and 0.3-1 mm in diameter.[4]

Distribution

This species occurs from southern Georgia and southern Alabama, south to southern Florida.[5]

Ecology

Habitat

E. bladwinii is found in swamps, wet pine flatwoods, fresh to brackish marshes, bogs,[3] ditches,[3][5] pinelands, temporary pools, and other moist to wet sites.[5] This species has been observed in a range of habitats, including muddy bottom of drying ditches, drying lots and other disturbed areas, wet ground in pastures, wet seepage areas, pine flatwoods and pine flatwood clearings, slopes, palm hammocks, swampy woodlands, marshy shores, prairies, and marshes. Soils include drying loamy sand, moist sandy loam, moist peat, moist sandy clay, and moist sandy humus.[6] It is listed by the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service as a facultative wetland species, where it most often occurs in wetland habitats but can occasionally be found in non-wetland habitats.[1]

Associated species include Gratiola pilosa, Carez reniformis, Lindernia sp., Eleocharis sp., Eryngium prostratum, and Spartina bakeri.[6]

Phenology

In Florida, E. baldwinii has been observed to flower in the spring (April) through fall (October).[3][7][4] This species has also been observed to flower in January, April through July, and November. It has been observed to fruit in January, May through July, and November as well.[6]


Fire ecology

It has been observed in an area that was burned slightly.[6]
