It occurs in seepage slopes, interdunal pine flatwoods, edges of ponds and swamps, steepheads, live oak-cabbage palm hammocks, calcareous hammocks, swampy savannas with dwarf pond cypress, shaded floodplain woods, Sarracenia bogs, sand pine-Florida rosemary scrubs, hardwood hammocks, river banks under hardwood trees, and sandhill scrubs. Occurs in disturbed areas such as recently cleared woods and shrub bogs, fallow fields, power lines, and vehicle trails.[1] Generally occurs in moist areas. Soils range from sand, mucky sand, loamy sand, sandy loam, and loam. Found in shady to open environments.[1]
