All bellworts that occur in Florida are rare. Please do not transplant from the wild unless there is imminent danger of site destruction (permits may be required). Retain if present in the landscape. Makes a nice spring wildflower in a wooded setting. Can be allowed to naturalize.

It's called "white mangrove" because it exudes extra salt through special glands which makes the leaves appear white. The word "mangrove"  refers to all types of trees that have adapted to living in the sea. Worldwide, there are 23 genera from eight different families that have species that are described as mangroves. Useful in coastal sites both for screening, windbreak, and as a plant useful to coastal stabilization. Plant slightly upslope of red and black mangroves.

Fruits are showy from mid-distance until spring. Salt tolerance is unknown but given known locations for the plant, we assume it is likely to be low. Specimen or hedge plant.

Low growing groundcover. Can be used as a turf substitute in low traffic areas.
