In the Coastal Plain in Florida and Georgia, ''S. integrifolia'' can be found next to flowing artesian wells, burned palmetto-slashpine flatwoods, burned longleaf pinewoods, pine savannas, longleaf pine sandhills, mixed woodlands, at the mouth of creeks in swampy woodlands, marshes, creek banks, oak-hickory woods, moist depressions in pine woodlands, ''Nyssa-Cypress'' swamps, floodplains, and edges of calcereous glades (FSU Herbarium).
