Name: Typha latifolia Southern Herbaceous Vegetation
Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...
Description: This association is a semi-natural type, consisting of <i>Typha latifolia</i> as an essentially monospecific stand, especially in artificial wetlands, such as borrow pits or ponds. The water table is at or above the soil surface for at least part of the growing season. The dominant species, <i>Typha latifolia</i>, often forms dense, almost monotypic stands. <i>Carex</i> spp. and <i>Schoenoplectus</i> spp. (= <i>Scirpus</i> spp.) are often found in this community, especially on the margins. Other co-occurring species of this association are not fully understood. It is a widespread type. In the Interior Low Plateau of Tennessee, <i>Typha latifolia</i> is commonly found with <i>Scirpus cyperinus</i> in roadside ditches and on the margins of ponds and reservoirs.
