Habitat: Florida paspalum is commonly found growing in grassy areas and wood openings, with low, moist, sandy soil and along fresh or brackish marshes. Common in the Coastal Plain and Piedmont; rare in the mountains.
Wildlife value: Produces an abundance of large grain-like seed which is eaten by birds including quail, dove, and turkey. Wildlife,
especially game birds, use for both food and cover. Seeds mature over an extended period of time, with an initial flush in late August and continuing until frost, providing wildlife with a dependable source of food from late summer into winter.
Earth Sangha Inventory
Founded in 1997, the Earth Sangha is a nonprofit public charity based in the Washington, DC, region. The Wild Plant Nursery is the most comprehensive source of local-ecotype, native plants in the Washington DC region, and the region’s only facility dedicated exclusively to this type of propagation. “Local-ecotype” plants are propagated from local, wild, naturally-occurring populations and are well-adapted to local conditions and for wildlife species that depend on the local forms, such as pollinators. Inventory is updated on a weekly basis so number may not be accurate.
