Name: Taxodium ascendens - Aristida palustris Depression Woodland
Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...
Description: This depression woodland is found in Carolina bays and swales in coastal South Carolina. Taxodium ascendens, and at a times Pinus serotina, sparsely populate these meadows. Aristida palustris, Andropogon spp. (Andropogon capillipes, Andropogon glaucopsis, Andropogon virginicus), and Panicum rigidulum var. combsii dominate the herb layer. Amphicarpum muehlenbergianum, Panicum verrucosum, and Rhynchospora careyana are also common graminoids in this type. At times an outer zone of this type may be present and exhibit a hybrid habitat between the pond-cypress and longleaf pine wet savannas. Sarracenia flava is common to these drawdown zones.
