This Association occurs on the Applegate, Ashland, and Prospect Ranger Districts, Rogue River National Forest, and the Tiller and North Umpqua Ranger Districts, Umpqua National Forest. It may also occur on the Butte Falls Ranger District, Rogue River National Forest and adjacent Bureau of Land Management lands. Distinguishing Characteristics. This is a drier, cooler Douglas-fir association. White fir is frequently present, but with relatively low covers. Piper's Oregongrape and poison oak, dry site indicators, are also frequently present. Soils. Parent material is mostly schist, welded tuff, and basalt, with some andesite, diorite, and amphibolite. Average surface rock cover is 8 percent, with 8 percent gravel. Soils are generally deep, but may be moderately deep, with an average depth of greater than 40 inches. PSME 47 Environment. Elevation averages 3000 feet. Aspects vary. Slope averages 35 percent and ranges between 12 and 62 percent. Slope position ranges from the upper one-third of the slope down to the lower one-third of the slope. This Association may also occur on benches and narrow flats. Vegetation Composition and Structure. Total species richness is high for the Series, averaging 44 percent. The overstory is dominated by Douglas-fir and ponderosa pine, with sugar pine and incense-cedar common associates. Douglas-fir dominates the understory. Incense-cedar, white fir, and Pacific madrone frequently occur, generally with covers greater than 5 percent. Sugar pine is common. Frequently occurring shrubs include Piper's Oregongrape, baldhip rose, poison oak, creeping snowberry, and Pacific blackberry.

  • IHCA Recommended Plant List
    Residential Architectural Review Committee Recommended Plant List Plant Materials The following plant materials are intended to guide tree and shrub ADDITIONS to residential landscapes at Issaquah Highlands. Lot sizes, shade, wind and other factors place size and growth constraints on plants, especially trees, which are suitable for addition to existing landscapes. Other plant materials may be considered that have these characteristics and similar maintenance requirements. Additional species and varieties may be selected if authorized by the Issaquah Highlands Architectural Review Committee. This list is not exhaustive but does cover most of the “good doers” for Issaquah Highlands. Our microclimate is colder and harsher than those closer to Puget Sound. Plants not listed should be used with caution if their performance has not been observed at Issaquah Highlands. * Drought-tolerant plant ** Requires well-drained soil DECIDUOUS TREES: Small • Acer circinatum – Vine Maple • Acer griseum – Paperbark Maple • *Acer ginnala – Amur Maple • Oxydendrum arboreum – Sourwood • Acer palmation – Japanese Maple • *Prunus cerasifera var. – Purple Leaf Plum varieties • Amelanchier var. – Serviceberry varieties • Styrax japonicus – Japanese Snowbell • Cornus species, esp. kousa Medium • Acer rufinerve – Redvein Maple • Cornus florida (flowering dogwood) • *Acer pseudoplatanus – Sycamore Maple • Acer palmatum (Japanese maple, many) • • *Carpinus betulus – European Hornbeam Stewartia species (several) • *Parrotia persica – Persian Parrotia Columnar Narrow

    Tree Taxonomy and Names Dr. Mike Kuhns USU Extension Forester What is taxonomy? • The practice and science of classification • Tree taxonomy – classifying trees botanically • Usually classify by anatomy, especially flowers and fruit; sometimes vascular, etc. • Often ecological similarities at family level and below Why do it? • Humans are classifiers • Knowing tree taxonomy let‟s you predict… – what tree will look like – how big it will get – how it will react to environment • The more precisely you can classify, the more precisely you can predict these things Maple Example • Maple – tells you little about appearance, drought hardiness, pH tolerance (opposite, lobed leaves; fruit samaras) Maple Example • Maple – tells you little about appearance, drought hardiness, pH tolerance (opposite, lobed leaves; fruit samaras) • Canyon maple (Acer grandidentatum) – drought & high pH tolerant, often good color, shape variable Maple Example • Maple – tells you little about appearance, drought hardiness, pH tolerance (opposite, lobed leaves; fruit samaras) • Canyon maple (Acer grandidentatum) – drought & high pH tolerant, often good color, shape variable • „Rocky Mountain Glow‟ canyon maple – so-so fall color, tree form Taxonomic Levels – Canyon Maple • Kingdom Plantae (Plants) Division Magnoliophyta (Angiosperms; flowering plants) Class Magnoliopsida (Dicotyledons) Subclass Rosidae (many orders; showy flowers) Order Sapindales (many families – citrus, cashew, etc.) Family Aceraceae (2 genera – Acer, Dipteronia) Genus Acer (120 species of maples) Species
