Linaria floridana
APALACHICOLA TOADFLAX
Synonym: Nuttallanthus floridana
Florida native
This plant of scrub, dunes and dry sandhills ranges from Mississippi to Georgia and in Florida mostly in the western panhandle and down the peninsula.
Apalachicola toadflax can be differentiated from the other two Linaria species in FLorida by the densely glandular-pubescent pedicels that are at least twice as long as the calyx and the spur that is shorter than the calyx.
Linaria floridana is a member of the Scrophulariaceae - Figwort family.
