From Flora of Indiana (1940) by Charles C. Deam
Frequent to common in all parts of the state and probably found in every county. This species prefers dry soil and is found in dry, open woods of all kinds, sometimes in low woods, fallow fields and along roadsides and railroads. It usually flowers about two weeks or more later than Hedeoma hispida.
