<i>Top</i>: In a 6–month greenhouse common garden, 34 of 50 plants from Texas flowered while 1 out of 50 South Carolina plants flowered (χ<sup>2</sup> = 60.14, d.f. = 1, P < 0.0001). These same plants were transplanted to Apron Island in October 2005, and plant survival was recorded in May 2006. <i>Bottom</i>: South Carolina plants had higher survivorship than plants from Texas.
