Name: Adiantum capillus-veneris - Boehmeria cylindrica - Lobelia siphilitica Cliff Vegetation
Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019
Description: This broadly defined association covers vegetation dominated by <i>Adiantum capillus-veneris</i> occurring in Kentucky, Tennessee, and possibly other inland states. In Kentucky, it occurs along bluffs of the Cumberland River and its South Fork, where small streams and seeps flow over open limestone cliffs. At these sites, <i>Boehmeria cylindrica</i> and <i>Lobelia siphilitica</i> are common herbaceous associates; <i>Hydrangea arborescens</i> is a common shrub. In Tennessee, <i>Stellaria fontinalis</i> is sometimes found in examples of this vegetation (in the Eastern Highland Rim). It is also reported from sites along the Green River in the Pennyroyal Karst Plain (Hart County, Kentucky, 222Eh).
