Ecology
Habitat
It is found primarily in wet environments, abundantly in a wet-type savannas, on occasion in mesic and dry savannas, and in pine-wiregrass savannas (Walker and Peet 1983). Historical range includes Alabama, Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Massachusetts, New York and Missouri and are considered rare species that are associated with depression wetlands in the southeastern Coastal Plain (Edwards and Weakley 2001).
Phenology
Considered a short lived plant (Hinmann and Brewer 2007).
Seed dispersal
Seed bank and germination
It is present in the seed bank (Edwards and Weakley 2001).
Fire ecology
S. reticularis was one of the several species to increase in frequency from significant change (from pre-fire to post-fire) (Hinmann and Brewer 2007). “S. reticularisproduced greater numbers of flowering stalks in second post-fire census than in the pre-fire census.” (Hinmann and Brewer 2007).
