From Flora of Indiana (1940) by Charles C. Deam
Infrequent to frequent throughout the state in woodland of many kinds, but never common over any considerable area.

......

Indiana Coefficient of Conservatism: C = 4

Wetland Indicator Status: FACU

Deam (1929): The surface of the sheaths, culms, and blades of this species is quite variable. A few plants re glabrous throughout.... The pubescent character has no geographical range in Indiana and so far as I can determine, no ecological significance.
