ssp. leucothrix (Nash) Freckmann & Lelong
St. Tammany Parish: Abita Creek Flatwoods Preserve,
Nature Conservancy property, from LA 36 take LA 435
east to Jack Lloyd Road, turn left on unmarked dirt road
across from Moonshadow Road. Go to the end of the
dirt road and walk straight into preserve into large open
area (several hundred meters in). This area is informally
called the “missing link” because of it shares floristic
similarities with hillside seep bog habitats and boggy,
pine flatwoods/savannas. Plants purplish, tall, and hairy.
