Very rare. Two of my specimens were collected in dense shade on the south banks of streams in springy places in sandy-gravelly soil made miry by large springs, and I found it in a tamarack bog in La Porte County. Grimes collected a specimen in damp soil on a rocky slope along Sugar Creek in Montgomery County. It has also been reported from Carroll and Noble Counties and from the area of Delaware, Jay, Randolph, and Wayne Counties.
