''O. filipes" occurs in dry or well drained sandy soils and sandy loam (FSU Herbarium). It seems to be most common in areas that receive full sun or are only partly shaded (FSU Herbarium). It can be found in longleaf pine flatwoods or sandhills, scrub oak barrens, pine-oak woodlands, and limestone glades (FSU Herbarium).
