| Distribution | "Nesom (2022b) demonstrated that what has been previously identified in North America as G. coarctata is actually a different species, G. impatiens" (Weakley 2022). Thus, the editors have moved all of the former G. coarctata records to this species.
Native to South America. | |
| Abundance | Rare, but presumably occurs in other counties in the eastern two-thirds of the state. | |
| Habitat | Mesic to dry roadsides, lakeside, mesic roadside near creek. | |
| Phenology | Flowering and fruiting March-July. | |
| Identification | This everlasting has glabrous upper surfaces of the leaves, usually no hairs at all (contra G. chionesthes, G. argyrinea, and G. purpurea). It differs from G. simplicicaulis mainly in its shorter stem (less than 20 inches tall vs. 20-36 inches tall in that species) and the presence of basal leaves at flowering time (vs. usually withered in that species). | |
| Taxonomic Comments | Newly described in 2022, by Nesom.
