Mohr's Barbara's Buttons
(Marshallia mohrii)

Description: This plant may reach a height of 2 feet or more. Its small white-pink flowers are produced in several heads, in a branched arrangement. The flowers bloom in May and June. The plant grows in moist to wet openings in woodlands and along shale-bedded streams. It often grows in association with grasses and sedges and prefers full sunlight or partial shade.

Forestry Considerations: This plant can probably tolerate light thinnings. Mechanical site prep and clearcutting could be very damaging to this plant, as would some herbicides.

Distribution by County: Known from Bibb, Cherokee, Calhoun and Etowah Counties in Alabama.
