Name: Lupinus spp. - Poa spp. Meadow
Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019
Description: This herbaceous alpine vegetation type has been described from Carter Mountain along the eastern side of the Absaroka Mountains in northwestern Wyoming. The sites on which stands of this association grow are the middle parts of steep, lee (easterly) slopes where snow accumulates early and remains until mid-summer. Soils on these sites are deep. The vegetation is dense and two-layered, with <i>Lupinus argenteus</i> forming a tall (40 cm) herbaceous layer above a shorter herbaceous layer of <i>Poa</i> spp., <i>Geum rossii</i>, the cushion forb <i>Arenaria congesta</i>, and other species. The species of <i>Poa</i> found in this type are unidentified in the literature.
