Name: Aquilegia canadensis - Asplenium heterochroum - Polymnia laevigata - Urtica chamaedryoides Herbaceous Vegetation Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro... Description: This panhandle Florida community consists of vegetation growing on limestone outcrops 1-5 m high, occurring on lower slopes adjoining bottomlands, mostly to entirely shaded by trees rooted in deeper soils of adjoining forests, but with highly distinctive floristic composition. Shrubs and woody vines, such as Decumaria barbara, Hydrangea quercifolia, Ptelea trifoliata, and Acer barbatum, are sometimes rooted in solution pockets in the top and sides of the outcrops and can be locally abundant. Herbaceous species include Aquilegia canadensis, Polymnia laevigata, Thelypteris kunthii, Asplenium heterochroum, Oxalis sp., Pilea pumila, Laportea canadensis, Pachysandra procumbens, Urtica chamaedryoides, Melica mutica, Arenaria lanuginosa, Chaerophyllum tainturieri, and Carex willdenowii. Bryophytes are locally abundant, and include Anomodon attenuatus, Conocephalum conicum, and Marchantia sp. The alien Lonicera japonica may also be present. The lowermost portions of the outcrops are very rarely flooded by extreme flood events.  Accession Code: VB.CC.21580.AQUILEGIACANADE Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 0
