Polygala balduini Nutt.

BALDWIN'S MILKWORT

**

Smith & Ward (1976) recognized the southern populations as var. carteri, noting "many individuals are not clearly assignable" and "intermediate in morphology" and that "individuals with partial manifestation of the characteristics of the more extreme South Florida populations may be found, particularly in coastal areas (Brevard County), appreciably further north". The range of var. carteri included Collier, Miami-Dade, and Monroe Counties (and Cuba), while var. balduinii included Collier and Miami-Dade Counties northward.
