It is restricted to a 50-km range, and all known natural populations of D. thinicola are located in Brevard County, Florida, near the city of Titusville. Most populations are located on private lands with conservation easements.

Recent research indicates that disturbance, particularly fire disturbance, is key for population growth in D. thinicola. It is a short-lived perennial (typically living less than 10 years).
