Lechea cernua
Also called Scrub Pinweed
Lechea cernua, commonly called nodding pinweed and scrub pinweed, is a threatened perennial herb endemic to the U.S. state of Florida.
It typically occurs in sandy openings in the fire-maintained xeric habitat of the Florida scrub. It appears to have a particular association with scrub-adapted oaks (which include sand live oak, scrub oak, and Chapman's oak, among others) and Florida rosemary.
