Name: Populus deltoides - Celtis laevigata / Sapindus saponaria Floodplain Woodland
Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019
Description: This association has been identified in the northern panhandle of Texas but is likely more widespread in the southwestern Great Plains. It is found in riparian areas along the edges of river floodplains and in dry watercourses that rarely receive surface flooding. Soils are sandy alluvium. This is a woodland with a complex physiognomy ranging from tall trees through smaller trees, shrubs, and herbaceous plants. It is dominated by a moderate canopy of large <i>Populus deltoides</i> and smaller <i>Celtis laevigata</i> and <i>Sapindus saponaria</i>. Shrubs are nearly always present but not abundant. The herbaceous stratum has moderate cover and is dominated by mid and tall grasses such as <i>Pascopyrum smithii, Andropogon hallii, Bouteloua gracilis, Hesperostipa comata</i>, and <i>Panicum virgatum</i>.
