Location: Southeast Florida (USA), south of Fort Myers;
Winkler Point, Estero Bay Preserve State Park

Habitat: narrow stretch of relatively dry, sandy soil between
freshwater marshes

Date photos taken: Jan. 25, 2010; follow-ups on Feb. 18, 2010

I am guessing that this is in the Fabaceae but it is just a guess. The
flower was very small, about 1/3 of an inch across. The leaves were
alternate, entire, narrow, up to one and 1/3 inch long, with a pronounced
midrib beneath. I went back to take the second two photos, I am pretty
sure I found the same species if not the same individual. I would be
very grateful for any help on identification of this species.

Thanks!
