Name: Spartina bakeri - Woodwardia virginica - Saccharum giganteum Marsh
Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019
Description: These seasonally flooded wetlands are dominated by <i>Spartina bakeri</i>, or at least with substantial cover of it. Circular ponds in which <i>Spartina bakeri</i> is typically the dominant species are found on marsh islands of the South Atlantic Coastal Plain of South Carolina and Georgia. Herbaceous dominants also include <i>Woodwardia virginica, Hibiscus moscheutos, Juncus effusus</i>, and <i>Saccharum giganteum</i>. Additional herbaceous species may include <i>Panicum virgatum, Cyperus odoratus</i>, and <i>Juncus roemerianus</i>. Scattered trees and shrubs also occur, including <i>Liquidambar styraciflua, Acer rubrum, Pinus taeda, Pinus serotina, Morella cerifera, Salix nigra, Diospyros virginiana, Cephalanthus occidentalis, Persea palustris</i>, and the exotic <i>Triadica sebifera</i>. Disturbance of these ponds may result in a reduction to less than 50% cover of <i>Spartina bakeri</i>. Fire is probably an infrequent event.
