Name: Osmunda cinnamomea - Rhynchospora capitellata - Thalictrum mirabile Cumberland Seepage Cliff Herbaceous Vegetation
Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...
Description: This type occurs on relatively cool, seepage-fed portions of sandstone cliff faces in the Cumberland Plateau of Alabama and possibly adjacent states. Individual cliff faces may extend vertically 100 to 150 feet, but this association tends to develop in areas that receive mostly filtered sunlight. Examples are characterized by the presence of relatively shade-intolerant species with high moisture requirements, such as Rhynchospora capitellata, Osmunda cinnamomea, Itea virginica, and Eupatorium fistulosum.
