Schoenolirion croceum, known by the common names yellow sunnybell, [1] sunnybells and swamp candle, [2] is a species of flowering plant in the Agave subfamily. It is native to the Southeastern United States from Texas to North Carolina. [3] [4] It is found on moist rock outcrops, in wet pinelands and in habitats that are very wet in the spring but dry in the summer. In middle Tennessee, it is found in fen-like areas in cedar glades, fed by spring water. Further south, it inhabits wet pine savannas and bogs. [2] [5]
It produces yellow flowers in the spring.

Eriogonum longifolium var. harperi, also known as Harper's buckwheat or Harper's umbrella plant, is a dicot of the family Polygonaceae, found in areas of nutrient-poor shale soils in Alabama, Kentucky and Tennessee. It lives inconspicuously in an immature vegetative stage for four or more years before developing a flowering stalk, then flowers and dies. It is listed as an endangered species by the state of Tennessee. It has eleven small populations in Alabama and five in Tennessee but its survival in Kentucky is uncertain. According to a leading expert, Professor James L. Reveal of the University of Maryland, its Kentucky population has been reportedly extirpated. Its 2006 Alabama Natural Heritage Program ranking was G4T2S1, demonstrating an opinion that it was "critically imperiled" in that state.

The toothed, deeply lobed leaves are up to 12 centimeters long and borne on petioles. They are evenly distributed along the stem. The inflorescence is a wide, spreading array of many flower heads, each lined with green- or black-tipped phyllaries. The heads contain yellow disc florets and most have very tiny yellow ray florets as well.
