Observation Narrative	A mesophytic oak-hickory-beech forest on a deep-soiled upland flanking a branch of the Nansemond River in Sleepy Hole Park. Ostrya virginiana dominates the understory, and a near-state-record-size individual of this species (23 m tall, 35.5 cm DBH, 11.6 m average crown spread) is located in the northeast corner of the plot.
