In the Hyperiaceae family, this native shrub lives low to the ground. Stems are smooth, leaves attached directly to the stem, growing alternate of each other.
The flowers have four yellow petals that dry into seed containing capsules. I've found this particular St. John's Wort blooming during various times of our long growing season (spring-fall) but is perhaps able to bloom all year long in the pine flatwoods.
