Distribution

Ecology

Habitat

It is found in longleaf pine-wiregrass communities (Buckner and Landers 1979). It is also found in grasslands (Jutila and Grace 2002).

Phenology

Seed dispersal

Seed bank and germination

Fire ecology

S. ciliata reached its peak abundance in 3-year rough plots, plots which had been last burned 3 growing seasons ago (Buckner and Landers 1979).
