Leavenworthia alabamica
Leavenworthia alabamica is a species of flowering plant in the family Brassicaceae. It is commonly known as Alabama gladecress. It is endemic to Alabama.
Leavenworthia alabamica occurs in four counties. Populations in Morgan County were found to be self-compatible, which is the opposite of self-incompatible populations found in the other three counties. It flowers between March and April. They are best suited for limestone outcrops and cedar glades. They can also be found in abandoned fields, pastures, rocky knolls, and roadsides.
