Taxonomic notes
Description
A description of Helianthus radula is provided in The Flora of North America.
Helianthus radula is a perennial herbaceous species.
Distribution
Helianthus radula is found along the southeastern coastal plain from southern South Carolina south to southern peninsular Florida and west to southeastern Louisiana.[1]
Ecology
Habitat
Generally, H. radula can be found in dryish savannas and sandhills as well as dry pine flatwoods.[1] It can live in loblolly or slash pine communities,[2] upland longleaf pine communities, [3][4] pine-oak sandhill woodlands, near the edges of bogs, limestone glades, and mixed oak-cabbage palm hammocks. Additionally, it occurs in disturbed areas such as roadsides, old fields, power line corridors, by trails, and in lawn and waste areas. This species seems to prefer semi-shaded areas, and occurs on mostly wet to dry sandy soils, or over limestone.[5]
Associated species include Pinus palutris, Quercus laevis, Serenoa repens, Sabatia brevifolia, Kalmia hirsuta, Balduina uniflora, Polygala lutea, Sorghastrum secundum, Quercus pumila, Seymeria cassioides, Liatris graminifolia, Helianthus heterophyllus, Cirsium, Bigelowia, Ludwigia, Pinus elliottii, Pityopsis, Baptisia simplicifolia, Ilex glabra, Andropogon, Rynchospora, Phoebanthus tenuifolia, Eupatorium album, Pityopsis, Rhexia alifanus, Liatris gracilis, Carphephorus odoratissimus, Baptisia simplicifolia, Ctenium aromaticum, Vaccinium darrowi, Quercus pumila, Quercus minima, Gaylussacia dumosa, and Physostegia godfreyi.[5]
Phenology
Flowering and fruiting has been observed in January and August through November.[5][6]
Seed dispersal
This species is thought to be dispersed by gravity. [7]
Fire ecology
This species has been found in habitat that is burned frequently,[5] even biennially.[4]
Conservation and management
Cultivation and restoration
