Name: Pinus palustris / Quercus laevis - Quercus geminata / Aristida stricta Woodland
Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019
Description: These are xeric longleaf pine sandhills, occurring mostly in the Outer Coastal Plain of North Carolina and South Carolina, but occasionally further inland (e.g., Bladen and Scotland counties, North Carolina). The canopy consists of an open (and sometimes very sparse) canopy of <i>Pinus palustris</i>. <i>Quercus laevis</i> is the predominant scrub oak, but <i>Quercus geminata, Quercus hemisphaerica</i>, and <i>Quercus incana</i> are often present and abundant. Although several characteristic coastal fringe species may be present, this type has substantially less of a broadleaf evergreen component than ~<i>Pinus palustris / Quercus geminata - Quercus hemisphaerica / Osmanthus americanus</i> Woodland (CEGL003577)$$, and a sparse to dense layer of <i>Aristida stricta</i>, depending upon tree cover.
