Observation Narrative ? The plot is located in a high elevation seepage swamp with considerable microtopographic heterogeneity introduced by braided stream channels, hummocks and low terraces. Species richness is probably increased considerably by the availability of well drained microhabitats that capture specimens of more typically upland plants such as Fagus grandifolia, Kalmia latifolia, Carex leptonervia and Poa alsodes. Plot located at headwaters of Newman Run, ca. 30 m east of FR 106 at the west end of Henry Ridge.
