Description
Distribution
Ecology
Habitat
P. anceps has been found in natural communities such as wooded floodplains, longleaf pine flatwoods, sand banks, mature live oak-magnolia-cabbage palm forests, the margins of cypress ponds, upland mixed woodlands, sparsely wooded glades, riverbanks, streambanks, lake shores, and slash pine-saw palmetto flats. It will also occur in areas affected by human disturbance such as field borders and roadsides. P. anceps prefers shaded conditions, and it will tolerate a range of soil types and drainage levels.[2]
Associated plants include Schoenus nigricans, Rhynchospora divergens, Scleria verticillatata, and Panicum rigidulum.[2].
