Hardwood swamps, wet thickets, river margins, edges of marshes, swales, and shores; often in standing water or in very deep muck.
Our only truly woody member of Rubiaceae, Cephalanthus can occasionally be a small tree. The leaves are opposite or in whorls of 3 and are typical rubiaceous leaves, resembling those of coffee and many other members of the family.
