Inflorescences 3–7-flowered. Flowers 8–10 mm diam.; hypanthium obcampanulate, 2–4 mm, strigose; petals elliptic to elliptic-lanceolate, 2.5–4.5 mm, shorter than to barely exceeding sepals, apex often acute; carpels 3 or 4.
Phenology: Flowering Mar–Apr.
Habitat: Woods, mountains, and piedmont
Elevation: 100–400 m
Distribution
Ala., Ga., Ky., N.C., S.C., Tenn., Va.
Discussion
Waldsteinia parviflora closely resembles W. fragarioides but has generally smaller flowers with petals shorter than to subequal to the sepals. The possibility that W. parviflora originated as a hybrid between W. fragarioides and W. lobata should be investigated.
