Ecology
Habitat
L. stuevei is found in woodlands and woodlands borders. [2] Specimens have been collected from dry open upland pine woods, old field with sandy clay, disturbed open pineland, old field, roadsides, and pine-oak sand ridge. [3]
Phenology
L. stuevei has been observed to flower from August to October. [4] Stems erect, very leafy; leaves alternate, pinnately trifoliolate compound; leaflets 3, sparsely hairy to very hairy on upper surface, very hairy on lower surface, without stipels; flowers in dense clusters; fruit is a 1-seeded, indehiscent pod. [5]
