Description

P. lutea is a terrestrial, scapose, perennial herb with a basal rosette. The leaves are rounded and entire, with a cuneate base, 1-6.5 cm long, and 0.8-2 cm wide. There are 1-8 scapes, glandular-pubescent, and 1-5 dm tall. The flower is solitary and ebracteate. The calyx is synsepalous near the base with 5, rarely 4 lobes. It is 4.5-6.5 mm long, glandular-pubescent, lobes 2.5-4.5 mm long. The corolla is yellow, 2-lipped, and 2-3.5 cm long. There are 5 lobes up to 1 cm long, spreading, and tubular throat. The capsules are globose or subglobose, longitudinally dehiscent, 3-4.5 mm in diameter. The seeds are brown, cancellate, oblong, and frequently acute at one end.[3]

Distribution

P. lutea ranges from southeastern North Carolina to southern Florida, then west to eastern Louisiana.[2]

Ecology

Habitat

P. lutea can be found in pine savannas and wet pine flatwoods, mostly in the outer Coastal Plain, rarely extending inland to seepages and sandhill-pocosin ecotones in the fall-line Sandhills of SC.[4] Specimens have been collected from wet sands of shrub bog, low swampy ground, borders of a bay, low pine woods, wet prairie, roadside ditch, savanna ecotone, pine savanna, grassy savanna, pine flatwoods, longleaf pine wiregrass ridge, edge of swamp, and open pineland.[5]

Phenology

P. lutea flowers from late March through May.[2]

Fire ecology

P.. lutea will re-sprout after a fire. It has been observed 40 days after a burn in a mesic pine savanna with a small depression marsh.[6] Populations are known to persist through repeated annual burning.[7]

Conservation, cultivation, and restoration

P. lutea is listed as threatened by the Florida Department of Agriculture & Consumer Services Division of Plant Industry.[1]
