This species is almost endemic to Florida.  Its range overlaps into southern Georgia and southeastern Alabama. The range includes all of Florida though it is  only going to occur where soil, drainage, and fire conditions are appropriate.

Retain if present. This and other members of the genus are hemiparasites and not easy to grow unless you happen to also have appropriate hosts present. Appropriate burn management will help retain this plant in naturalistic settings. This is very showy in fall.
