Sandy oak savanna, dry grassy places (and prairies), shallow soil over limestone pavement (Drummond Island), and rock ledges. This is a very early-flowering species, usually readily distinguished from small plants of R. hispidus by the less sharply toothed leaves and the short tuberous-swollen roots.
