Observation Narrative	Floodplain of Bloody Run. Acer rubrum, Nyssa sylvatica seepage swamp with scattered Magnolia virginiana and Liriodendron tulipifera and a subcanopy of Alnus serrulata. Dense tall shrub layer of Clethra acuminata and Vaccinium fuscatum. High cover of Symplocarpus foetidus at time of survey. Site includes mucky seepage areas, rivulets of flowing water, and hummocky islands. Many species of sedge and orchids. Community on adjacent slope is a Coastal Plain mixed oak / heath forest. Directions to plot: Headwater seep 200-300 m upstream and E of tour road, N of main channel in floodplain of Bloody Run.
