Lechea deckertii, commonly called Deckert's pinweed, is a perennial herb or subshrub endemic to the U.S. states of Florida and Georgia.[4][5]

Habitat

[edit | edit source]

Lechea deckertii occurs in exposed, sandy soils in the fire-dependent habitats of the Florida scrub and longleaf pine sandhill. However, it is most common in the southern portions of its habitat; L. deckertii is very rare in northern Florida and southern Georgia.[5]

Conservation

[edit | edit source]

Despite its global listing, it is listed as critically imperiled in Georgia and vulnerable in Florida.[1]
