Observation Narrative ? Plot located in hemlock "cove" east of Elk Pond Branch, near small grove of Rhododendron catawbiense. Herbs are extremely scarce in this shaded, more or less oligotrophic hemlock forest. Old chestnut logs in the area. The ferns in the plot are situated along the upslope portion where more light apparently reaches the forest floor. Measured trees in plot (dbh in cm.): Tsuga canadensis (72.1), Magnolia acuminata (37).
