Name: Schizachyrium scoparium Shrub Herbaceous Alliance
Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...
Description: Open glade vegetation with large areas of bare or lichen-covered rock, with only scattered herbs and shrubs. These are herbaceous grass-dominated openings with scattered shrubs restricted to microsites with slightly deeper soils. Sites may be seasonally wet, and the flora may reflect these soil and moisture conditions. This alliance currently contains communities of the high-elevation Blue Ridge uplands where soils are droughty and thin over generally flat, continuous rock.
