Location Narrative ? This stand is located on the south end of Table Mountain. The plot consists entirely of herbaceous vegetation (mostly forbs) dominated by Trifolium variegatum. The plot is a slight depression with a fair amount of cobbles. Water is present probably due to recent (current) heavy rain. The plot is probably not a vernal pool. Low diversity of species in this plot. Trifolium jokerstii in the plot and areas surrounding.; This site is actively grazed quite heavily by cattle. The vegetation is chewed very short.
