Please try our next iteration of the Michigan Flora Online here. Beginning on February 1, 2023, michiganflora.net will point to this new site.
The new site offers several benefits over the existing website, including real coordinate mapping, giving a clearer view of the density of documentation as well as more precision about plant distributions and their link to landforms. We will also have the ability to update species pages more regularly, both in terms of new collections and as more existing Michigan specimens are georeferenced. In addition, we have a better photo display, and offer indented keys.

Deciduous forests, especially rich beech-maple-hemlock stands, forested dunes, rarely under white-cedar. Reported from Isle Royale with the original description, but no specimens from there have been located. The species is wide-ranging in the western United States and adjacent Canada, re-occurring in the northern Great Lakes area east to the Ottawa district, Quebec. The panicle branches are reflexed at maturity. The base of the stem is ± bulbous; this character, together with the densely antrorse-hispid pedicels and retrorsely scabrous sheaths, makes even over-ripe specimens readily identifiable.
