L. hirta occurs in natural communities such as annually burned pineland, slash pine flatwoods, mixed hardwood forests, pine-oak woods, and scrubby sandhills. It is also known to grow in areas prone to human disturbance such as old fields, powerline corridors, roadsides, and forest edges. L. hirta can tolerate sunny to semi-shaded conditions and often grows in dry soils.[2]

Associated species include Lespedeza angustifolia, Chamaecrista fasciculata, Rubus cuneifolius, Solidago odora, Rubus cuneifolius, Quercus margarettae, and Quercus laevis.[2]
