They are pleasantly spready in the Albermarle NE region of coastal NC in
"lawns". Pink, copper, and probably some 'brids.

I found this growing along a roadside in Southeast NC (8B) and am
confidant its H. tubispathus. It is a well established population,
extending about 150 yards along the roadside, which is regularly mowed by
the local street maintenance dept. They are shaded most of the day by a
Live Oak canopy, but receive strong afternoon sun.

As far I know, this species is native to the gulf coast so I am curious to
know how it found its way here. Have there been other populations found
outside of its range?

I have read the seeds are easy to germinate. Any advice on growing them
to maturity for gardens?

Thanks.
