DistributionThe southern Coastal Plain, north only to Robeson, Bladen, and Onslow counties.

Ranges from "se. NC to s. FL and west across the Gulf Coastal Plain, the exact range limits obscure" (Weakley 2022).
AbundanceSeemingly uncommon. The NCNHP removed the taxon from its Watch List (formerly W2) in late 2022 and moved the State Rank from S2 to SU (Undetermined). This website retains the S2 suggested rank, to indicate its apparent abundance level, as far as known.
Habitat"Wet savannas, especially those over calcareous clay soils" (Weakley 2022).
