An herb approximately 8 inches tall. Relatively long and thin, linear to lanceolate, dark-green leaves. Simple leaf arrangement, with both the stems and leaves covered in a fine pubescence. Hairy, light green cyathium with three darker green bands running to the cyathium’s tip. Two prominent, outward-sticking stipules at the leaf base.

Found in a sandy spot within a sandhill with Paronychia species, a very small grass, and relatively few Pinus palustris trees nearby.

Shrub. Scrub Area (sandy ground). Very small leaves with red tips on underside, serrate with red petiole and stems. Fruiting and flowering (pink) plant with small “shiny” blueberries (not fruiting or flowering now)

Vine. Wet hardwood forest land. Not completely epiphytic, can grow completely on ground. Grows from ground and spreads onto nearby plants (can span up to 25ft) 3 lobed slightly pubescent leaves that grow in alternate pattern. Tendrils on vines for support on other plants. Purple elegant flowers that open quickly (span of 5 min) can make large berry fruit (yellow).
