Comments
The Flora of Virginia and Weakley (2012 Draft Flora of the Southern and Mid-Atlantic States) treat this taxon and T. perfoliata var. biflora as species. However, hybrids or intermediates between them are frequent enough to often confound identification; therefore, we prefer to treat them as varieties.
Habitat
Dry, open forests, woodlands, barrens, rock outcrops, and various weedy, disturbed habitats. Common throughout.
Native Status
Native
