Hypericum lobocarpum |
Hypericum lobocarpum, commonly called fivelobe St. Johnswort, [1] is a species of flowering plant in the St. Johnswort family ( Hypericaceae). It is native eastern to North America, where it is found primarily in the western portion of the southeastern United States. [2] [3] Its typical natural habitat is in open wet areas, such as stream banks, lake margins, swamps, and pine savannas. [3] [4]
Hypericum lobocarpum is a deciduous shrub with opposite, entire leaves. It produces yellow flowers in the summer. [3] It appears to be closely related to the more eastern Hypericum densiflorum, from which Hypericum lobocarpum can typically be distinguished by its 5-merous ovary and lobed capsules. [3]
