- There are only a handful of collections from Virginia, all from montane wetlands in the Ridge and Valley region. One specimen (DUKE) is known from a Ridge and Valley calcareous marsh that supports numerous vascular plants that are disjunct from similar habitats to the north and west.

- Calcareous fens and marshes, pond edges, and swamps in the mountains. Apparently very uncommon or rare. (Biodiversity occurrence data published by DUKE, NY, WTU.
