Distribution

Ecology

Habitat

In the Coastal Plain in Florida, S. undulatum can be found in upland oak-hickory woods, limestone glades, and along pine-oak woodlands.[2]

Associated species include Pinus, Quercus, and Carya.[2] S. undulatum has shown resistance to regrowth in reestablished longleaf pine woodlands that were disturbed by agriculture in South Carolina coastal plain communities, marking it as an indicator species for remnant woodlands.[3]

Phenology

It has been observed flowering in January, October and November.[2][4]
