Observation Narrative ? Plot location: ca. 0.4 mies east of Washington Ditch Parking Area and 40 meters north of Boardwalk. Great Dismal Swamp National Wildlife Refuge. A non-riverine baldcypress forest occurring on a claypan flat in the western part of the Great Dismal Swamp. Seasonal flooding here is probably of somewhat longer duration than in other portions of the Swamp. Floristic diversity, particularly of herbaceous species is very low in this community, although the rare sedge Carex lupuliformis is common here.
