Name: Populus balsamifera ssp. trichocarpa / Salix exigua Forest Reference: Western Ecology Working Group of... Description: This association occurs on alluvial deposits along rivers and perennial streams in habitats which are seasonally flooded and saturated. It generally occurs in wider river valleys or terraces, with patches of Populus balsamifera ssp. trichocarpa dominating forest or woodland patches while Salix exigua dominates a continuous shrub canopy, <7 m in height. Few examples of this type occur in pristine condition, so most commonly Poa pratensis, Bromus tectorum, and Verbascum thapsus are widespread in this community. In a few remnants, the open understory can have Artemisia ludoviciana and Leymus cinereus along with some native forbs.  Accession Code: VB.CC.23400.POPULUSBALSAMIF Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 0
