Observation Narrative ? This plot captured the typical Schizachyrium scoparium-dominated vegetation of a 1-2 acre grassland, which is embedded within a 10-12 acre Carya glabra - Quercus spp. woodland over sparse to dense cover of grass and forbs. The plot has a small portion of a large clone of Rhus aromatica, but missed much of the site's woody vegetation and the three shale barren endemics that occur at this site.
