Name: Prunus angustifolia Shrubland Alliance
Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...
Description: This alliance is largely anthropogenic, occurring on sand dunes, old fields, disturbed areas, and pastures. Prunus angustifolia dominates in clonal thickets. Other characteristic species include Andropogon hallii, Bouteloua curtipendula, Gaillardia pulchella, Prunus gracilis, and Rhus aromatica. In Oklahoma, it is often the result of physical or chemical removal of Artemisia filifolia. In the sandhills of the Georgia Coastal Plain, formerly dominated by Pinus palustris, vegetation of this alliance is generated from degraded or disturbed examples of other communities.
