Ecology

Habitat

In natural habitats P. urinaria has been documented to grow abundantly in hammock clearings, fallow fields, and amongst Fabaceae patches near ponds. In human disturbed areas it can be observed growing in the moist soil of fire lanes, lawns, depressions along roads, city parks, and old plantations (FSU Herbarium). Soil types observed include moist sandy loams, moist loam, and peaty sandy soils (FSU Herbarium).

Physalis angulata is an associated species (FSU Herbarium).
