Name: Acer rubrum var. trilobum / Viburnum nudum var. nudum / Osmunda cinnamomea - Saururus cernuus - Impatiens capensis Forest
Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...
Description: This saturated vegetation is found in seepage areas, often on edges of floodplains or in headwaters of small streams, in the upper Coastal Plain and Piedmont of North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Virginia, and likely other states. The canopy includes <i>Acer rubrum, Quercus phellos</i>, and possibly other wetland trees. Some examples may contain, or even be codominated by, <i>Nyssa sylvatica</i> or less likely <i>Nyssa biflora</i>. Some herbs found in this association include <i>Saururus cernuus, Impatiens capensis, Osmunda cinnamomea, Osmunda regalis var. spectabilis, Boehmeria cylindrica, Rudbeckia laciniata, Ranunculus recurvatus</i>, and <i>Juncus</i> spp. Some more western examples may contain <i>Chelone glabra</i> and <i>Saxifraga micranthidifolia</i>. Occurrences in South Carolina's Savannah River drainage are dominated by <i>Carex atlantica ssp. capillacea, Carex debilis var. pubera, Carex debilis var. debilis</i>, and <i>Carex leptalea</i>.
