The origin/habitat information below is supplied courtesy of Charles and Margaret Baker
The following information is based on the name of the plant provided by the donor, and assumes that the name is correct. If the plant has been misidentified, then the following information may not be correct.
This text is copyrighted by the Bakers and may not be reproduced without permission.
ORIGIN/HABITAT: The eastern United States, including extreme southern
Canada from the Atlantic Coast to the Great Lakes. In the United States,
distribution in the east extends southward along the Atlantic Coast from
New England to extreme northern Florida where it then extends westward
along the Gulf of Mexico Coast. In the north, distribution extends
westward to the eastern shore of Lake Michigan and then angles
southwestward across southeastern Iowa to eastern Kansas where it then
curves southward through eastern Oklahoma and eastern Texas to the coast
of the Gulf of Mexico. The type specimen was discovered in dry, hilly
woods near Boston, Massachusetts, and plants are frequently found on the
shoulders of roads, in open forests, and in grassy meadows or pastures.
Luer (1975) states, "They are inconspicuous and frequently overlooked."
