Description: This shrubland is a widespread association in the central and southern coastal regions of California. It is one of the classic intermixings of chaparral and coastal sage scrub in the California Mediterranean climate. This shrubland is codominated by <i>Adenostoma fasciculatum</i> and <i>Salvia mellifera</i> in the shrub layer, with a typically sparse herbaceous layer. The emergent tree layer is typically nonexistent. It occurs on gentle to steep slopes on all aspects at low elevations between 114 and 769 m (374-2523 feet). Parent material is more often granite and less often sedimentary, metamorphic, gabbro, diorite, or metavolcanic. Soil texture includes sand, clay, various loams, silty clay loam, and silt.
