Florida, west to se. Texas; and in c. Tennessee (Chester et al. 1993).

Tennessee and n. Alabama, sandstone outcrops of the Alabama plateau region, granite outcrops of the Georgia and Carolina Piedmont, Selma chalk outcrops in w. Alabama, and wet pinelands and boggy areas in more southern and western parts of its range. All of these habitats are very wet in spring and often very dry in summer.image of plant
