Name: Quercus hemisphaerica - Magnolia grandiflora - Carya (glabra, pallida) / Vaccinium arboreum / Chasmanthium sessiliflorum Forest
Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...
Description: This association represents upland forests with diverse overstory composition found in fire-protected areas of the Coastal Plain of Georgia and Florida, and possibly adjacent areas. Stands have been documented on gentle slopes on stream and river bluffs and near sinkholes. A number of different species may be encountered in the overstory of these stands; Quercus hemisphaerica is possibly the most constant and differential species. Other tree species may include Pinus taeda, Magnolia grandiflora, Carya glabra, Carya pallida, and Quercus nigra. In addition, Quercus hemisphaerica is common in all strata. Typical shrubs and small trees include Persea borbonia, Persea palustris, Symplocos tinctoria, and Vaccinium arboreum. Common shrubs are Vaccinium arboreum, Vaccinium stamineum, and Serenoa repens. Typical herbs include Chasmanthium laxum, Mitchella repens, Elephantopus elatus, and Dichanthelium commutatum.
