A profuse bloomer. Use for natural landscapes and wildlife habitat areas. Does well under a high pine canopy.

Not widely grown. Groundcover.

The species is hermaphroditic (monecious), meaning flowers have both male and female reproductive structures on the same plant. This is a near-endemic meaning that it occurs mostly in Florida with a few outlying populations in Georgia and South Carolina. Moist wildflower gardens.
