Name: Panicum virgatum - Panicum rigidulum var. elongatum - Polygonum hydropiperoides Herbaceous Vegetation
Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...
Description: Vegetation of sandbars of blackwater rivers of the Coastal Plain of Mississippi and possibly other states. In addition to the nominal species, which were dominant in the examples seen, graminoids and forbs include Eupatorium serotinum, Pluchea camphorata, Diodia teres, Solidago sp. (cf. Solidago canadensis), Aeschynomene sp., Rubus trivialis, Paspalum urvillei, Sida sp., Ipomoea sp., Hypericum galioides, Lycopus virginicus, and Mikania scandens. A sparser and more open phase with lower Panicum virgatum cover contains Verbena brasiliensis, Bulbostylis stenophylla, Croton capitatus, Houstonia sp., Agalinis fasciculata, and Dichanthelium sp. Woody vines include Smilax rotundifolia and Campsis radicans. Scattered woody plants of low stature include Salix nigra and Betula nigra. These areas receive water during periods of rainfall, and become hot and dry during rainless intervals.
