Description

Distribution

Ecology

R. plumose was found in non-disturbed longleaf pine sites in the North Carolina; in contrast, the species was not found in highly disturbed sites (Cohen et al. 2004).

Habitat

Phenology

Seed dispersal

Seed bank and germination

Fire ecology

R. plumose benefits from high fire frequencies and is common in the second winter after fire in longleaf pine forest ecosystems in the southeastern United States (Glitzenstein et al. 2003, DiMiceli et al. 2007).

Pollination

Use by animals

The Henslow’s Sparrow (Ammodramus henslowii) does not prefer to eat the seeds (DiMiceli et al. 2007).

Diseases and parasites

Conservation and Management

Cultivation and restoration
