Our opening presentation will examine the species traits, vegetative patterns, and ecological processes found in spontaneous plant communities. Each will be followed by an example of its direct incorporation into a landscape plan, planting protocol, or management procedure. The plant traits described will include habitat fidelity, growth pattern, spatial and temporal niche, and proliferation strategies. The patterns and processes explored will include disturbance, succession, competition, and relative ecological stability.
