Name: Schizachyrium scoparium - Solidago plumosa Herbaceous Vegetation
Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...
Description: Riverside scour prairie dominated by Schizachyrium scoparium, Sporobolus clandestinus, Solidago plumosa, Symphyotrichum dumosum (= Aster dumosus), and many other herbaceous species. This community occurs on mafic 'Carolina slates' along the banks of the Yadkin River in the Yadkin River gorge (Stanley and Montgomery counties, North Carolina). Typical woody species include Gelsemium sempervirens, Amorpha fruticosa, Amorpha schwerinii, and others. This community was likely extremely restricted naturally, but now is limited to a short stretch of river less than a kilometer long, above the impoundment of one lake and immediately below the dam of another. Exotic species, such as Albizia julibrissin, are encroaching.
