Hasteola robertiorum
Also called Florida Hasteola, Gulf Hammock Indian Plantain, Hammock Herb
Hammockherb is a rare Florida wildflower in the daisy family, found only in north-central peninsular Florida in hydric hammocks and muddy spots beside spring-fed blackwater rivers. It is not a common garden or houseplant, so cultivation advice is limited and it is best grown only where moist, shaded, peaty conditions can be copied.
Hasteola robertiorum, commonly referred to as hammockherb or Gulf coast hammock plantain, is a rare species of flowering plant endemic to north-central peninsular Florida in the US.
