Description: This association represents open shrublands dominated by <i>Hypericum chapmanii</i> in northern Florida. Such areas may be found in a variety of habitats such as small flatwoods ponds and dome swamps or along the ecotones of larger ponds and domes in the region. The vegetation is typified by a moderate to dense shrub/dwarf-tree stratum 2-5 m tall, dominated by <i>Hypericum chapmanii</i>, typically with <i>Ilex myrtifolia</i> and <i>Hypericum brachyphyllum</i> present. A sparse emergent layer of <i>Taxodium ascendens</i> may be present.
