This mesic herbaceous association is described from subalpine meadows in the Sierra Nevada surrounding Lake Tahoe. Most occurrences are on the margins of meadows, and slopes are gentle, not exceeding 15%. Elevations range from 2334 to 2853 m (7658-9360 feet), and snow duration is moderate to long. The water table is usually at least 1m below the surface during most of the growing season. Total vegetation cover ranges from 85-100% and is characterized by a high percentage cover of the tall herbaceous species Veratrum californicum. Common associated species include Juncus nevadensis, Oreostemma alpigenum var. andersonii, Carex scopulorum, Deschampsia caespitosa and Carex luzulifolia. |

As currently described, this vegetation includes successional shrublands dominated by <i>Baccharis halimifolia</i> on saturated soils both in the interior Coastal Plain of Mississippi, Louisiana and Arkansas and along the Gulf Coast of Texas. Coastal settings include shrublands dominated by <i>Baccharis halimifolia</i> that invade old fields and saline and non-saline prairies in the absence of fire. In these settings, <i>Spartina spartinae, Andropogon virginicus, Andropogon glomeratus, Setaria parviflora (= Setaria geniculata)</i>, and <i>Solidago sempervirens</i> are often present in the herb stratum. In the absence of fire, this association will succeed to ~<i>Spartina spartinae</i> Herbaceous Vegetation (CEGL004608)$$.Apparently, this association also includes vegetation of the interior Coastal Plain occurring in disturbed settings on saturated soils. |
