Suggest a correction or write a new one!
The Florida skullcap, also known as Scutellaria floridana, is a rare flowering plant found only in the Florida Panhandle. It is listed as a federally threatened species due to its small population and vulnerability to human activities. This perennial herb has narrow leaves and purple-blue flowers with a white spot inside. It typically blooms from April to July and is dependent on periodic wildfires for its habitat maintenance. However, fire suppression and other human activities such as coastal development and off-road vehicle use pose a threat to its survival. The plant is most abundant in protected areas where prescribed burns are used, but populations on private land are not as healthy.
