Where it grows wild

Grows on shaded limestone, marl and coquina outcrops and sinkhole walls in the south-eastern coastal plain. This follows the parents' ecology and the original description. It needs lime and deep shade from hot summer sun.

The records carry little elevation data. The coastal plain sites are near sea level to about 100 m.
