Name: Tsuga canadensis - (Pinus strobus) Temporarily Flooded Forest Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro... Description: This association covers forested alluvial wetlands dominated by Tsuga canadensis and/or Pinus strobus which occur on temporarily flooded alluvial flats and ravines in the Southern Blue Ridge, the Cumberlands, and possibly in adjacent ecoregions. These dense forests usually occur over silty, acidic soils. The shrub and herbaceous strata may be dense to open, but have components indicative of the temporarily flooded hydrology, thus separating this type from similar, non-wetland communities. Rhododendron maximum is a typical shrub and can form a dense subcanopy.  Accession Code: VB.CC.20550.TSUGACANADENSIS Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 0
