Habitat
D. brevifolia occurs in moist to wet, sandy or peaty soils (FSU Herbarium). It also seems to prefer more open conditions that provide higher light levels (FSU Herbarium). It can be found in longleaf pine communities,[1] pine-saw palmetto flats, open glades, and at the margins of marshes, grass-sedge bogs, ponds, and swamps (FSU Herbarium). It also occurs in some disturbed areas that are moist and open, including power line corridors, cutover pinewoods, roadside ditches, open fields, and mowed lawns (FSU Herbarium).
