Description
Common names: Woollysheath threeawn
Distribution
Ecology
Habitat
It occurs in frequently burned upland longleaf pine-wiregrass communities, longleaf and shortleaf pine-oak hickory communities, and loblolly pine plantations on Ultisols, the higher parts of pine flatwoods, as well as edges of unburned hardwood foresets (Brockway et al. 1997; FSU Herbarium). Soil conditions range from wet to very well drained and sand to loamy sands. It can occur on dsiturbed soils.
Phenology
It flowers in October and November in Florida.
Seed dispersal
Seed bank and germination
Fire ecology
Burning during the growing season is thought to primarily stimulate seed production by important grass species in longleaf pine wiregrass communities, possibly including Aristids lanosa (Biswell and Lemon, 1943; Streng et. al, 1993 cited by Brockway et al 1997). However, burning during winter is also beneficial.
