Description
A. pedicularia is a biennial plant that forms a basal rosette of leaves the first year and the following year becomes a branched flowering plant (Musselman et al. 1969). The stem is terete and covered with glandular hairs [1]. The leaves are fernlike, opposite and sessil [2]. [3].
Distribution
Ecology
Habitat
A. pedicularia can occur in slash pinelands, oak-hickory forests, and oak-pine forests (FSU Herbarium; Stiles 1977; Werth et al. 1979). Associated species include Pinus rigida, Castanea pumila, Pinus palustris and species of Quercus (Werth and Riopel 1979). It is a hemiparasitic plant, with a strong affinity for oaks (Musselman and Grelen 1979). Musselman et al. (1969) suggested that A. pedicularia was specific to oak species, however studies have shown populations growing without oaks hosts (Musselman and Grelen 1979; Werth and Riopel 1979). Werth and Riopel (1979) suggest that it does not exhibit a promiscuous parasitism characteristic, but a selectivity for fagaceous roots.
