Location:
Malabar, Malabar Scrub
This is Yellow Milkwort.
Florida's the only place that it grows.
Its seeds are spread by ants who eat the "food body",
And then the seeds, in a heap, are disposed.

Wild South Florida - Yellow Milkwort
(This is a very interesting article, read to find out what a food body is!)
