Name: Salix boothii - Salix geyeriana / Carex angustata Wet Shrubland
Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019
Description: This shrubland association is found on the east slope of the Oregon Cascades. Sites are low-gradient floodplains and shallow basins between 1300-1620 m elevation. Soils are either sedge peats or deep alluviums with surface textures of silt, fine sandy loam or organic loam. Water capacity is moderate to high, and soils remain moist through the summer during most years. Sites are flooded to 20 cm (8 inches) above the soil surface in the spring. The shrub layer is dominated by tall individuals of <i>Salix boothii</i> and <i>Salix geyeriana</i>. <i>Betula glandulosa</i> is common but never dominant. In the herbaceous layer, <i>Carex angustata</i> has 100% constancy though its cover varies from 3-80%.
