Name: Rosa nutkana Central Rocky Mountain Shrubland Alliance
Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019
Description: The vegetation of this Pacific Northwest shrubland alliance is characterized by a <i>Rosa nutkana</i>-dominated shrub layer. Common associates are <i>Cornus sericea</i> and <i>Symphoricarpos albus</i> which may occur with low cover. The moderate to dense herbaceous layer is dominated by mesic perennial graminoids and forbs, including <i>Deschampsia cespitosa</i> or <i>Oenanthe sarmentosa</i>. Scattered trees may be present with low cover. This small-patch shrubland alliance is found in the mountains of Oregon at montane elevations. It typically occurs in moist sites such as in floodplains, along open streambanks, and in mesic meadows.
