Name: Cephalanthus occidentalis - (Leucothoe racemosa) / Carex joorii Shrubland Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro... Description: This community occurs in isolated small depressions in Piedmont upland settings, holding water much or all of the growing season and wet enough that trees are excluded from the interior or at least sparsely scattered there. The vegetation is an open mix of shrubs and herbs, with Cephalanthus occidentalis or Leucothoe racemosa generally dominating. Carex joorii is most typically the dominant herb, but other wetland graminoids may occur. The flora is depauperate and does not include large numbers of plants with Coastal Plain affinities. Quercus phellos generally occurs along the edge, and Liquidambar styraciflua or Acer rubrum may also be present.  Accession Code: VB.CC.28370.CEPHALANTHUSOCC Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 0
