Molecular analyses and a common garden experiment were also performed. Differences in torus rim width, flower color, flower number, and leaf coloration were examined in both the field and common garden. The sand hills population from both the coastal and the serpentine populations for leaf coloration. Population differentiation occurred among all three sites for at least some of the floral characters examined.
