Locally infrequent to common in very sandy soil on open, wooded dunes and along roadsides in the extreme northern part of the state and in a few counties to the south of this area. In the southern part, and in a few of the central counties, it is found on high, wooded river bluffs, and on the crests and slopes of open, wooded ridges.
