Name: Carex spectabilis - Potentilla flabellifolia Alpine Meadow Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019 Description: This subalpine meadow occurs in moist basins between 1250-2100 m (4110-6895 feet) elevation. Sites are typically flat to concave. The vegetation is dominated by <i>Carex spectabilis</i> with <i>Carex nigricans</i> and/or <i>Potentilla flabellifolia</i> usually prominent to codominant. This is a species-rich association; however, few species other than the dominants are rarely more than prominent. <i>Caltha leptosepala ssp. howellii</i> and <i>Juncus drummondii</i> appear occasionally as prominent. This association occurs at Mount Rainier National Park and in the Olympic Mountains.  Accession Code: urn:lsid:vegbank.org:commConcept:30738-{0454EEFE-1C93-45D1-A5AB-3F64C3C3D5AA} Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 0
