Hedeoma

not marked as a favorite taxon Hedeoma hispida Pursh. Common name: Rough Pennyroyal, Mock Pennyroyal. Phenology: May-Aug. Habitat: Prairies, Disturbed areas, pastures, old fields, barrens, granitic flatrocks, especially in exposed, thin soil; apparently adventive eastwards in the eastern portions of our area from farther west, but the native distribution unclear. Distribution: British Columbia and New Mexico east to Maine, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia. Irving (1980) shows H. hispida east to e. Panhandle Florida, c. Alabama, nc. Tennessee, and s. Ohio; some of the scattered records further east are adventive. It may be recently arrived farther east or was previously overlooked. First reported for South Carolina by Hill & Horn (1997).
