Observation Narrative
Very little canopy - some P. taeda and Acer rubrum. In young longleaf. Very little shrub layer as well. Acer rubrum & Magnolia vir. are beginning to enter shrub layer. Herb layer is very dense and dominated by Arundinaria, Osmunda cin, and Viburnum nudum.
Fire has created dense regrowth. Seep seems significantly altered from NHP description. Abundance of shrub/tree shoots & Arundinaria may choke out many herbaceous spp.
