Name: Liriodendron tulipifera Ruderal Forest
Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019
Description: This association represents early-successional, nearly monospecific stands of <i>Liriodendron tulipifera</i> in the southeastern United States. Examples are most common in the interior regions but also extend into portions of the adjacent Coastal Plain. Associates vary with biogeography but can include <i>Acer rubrum, Robinia pseudoacacia, Acer negundo</i>, and <i>Acer saccharum</i>. <i>Liquidambar styraciflua</i> is common in Coastal Plain and Piedmont locations. Vines can be abundant, including <i>Vitis</i> spp., <i>Smilax</i> spp., and <i>Parthenocissus quinquefolia</i>. Stands develop after a variety of anthropogenic disturbances across a wide variety of sites and soil types in a variety of mesic habitats, including along streams and on upland mountain benches. Stands with mixed species composition (generally mid- to late-successional) are covered by other associations.
