Payne South Carolina was extremely frustrating, by the middle of the week we had only verified the existence of one location for Fragaria virginiana inthe Coastal Plain. Three accessions were located in the Edgefield District of Sumter National Forest and four in Greenwood State Park. Fragaria virginiana from the one verified Coastal Plain location is currently growing in a garden near Lexington, SC. Twelve accessions of Vaccinium spp., four of Gaylussacia frondosa, and one of Rubus argutus were also collected.In southeastern Louisiana and in Mississippi, Fragaria virginiana was not abundant either, and no accessions were found south of Starkville, MS. Specific previous sites were visited near Hattisburg and Laurel, MS, but F. virginiana was no longer present. A total 33 accessions of F. viriniana were collected from east central and northeastern Mississippi. Occurring in small outcroppings of prairie in these regions. Characterized by a very thin layer of 'usually' sticky black soil over decaying limestone, and a scattered to dense overstory of Juniperus virginiana. Within such prairies, F. virginiana was often found growing directly under J. virginiana where little other vegetation occurred. In addition to F. virginiana, 14 accessions of Vaccinium spp. and two accessions Rubus flagellaris were also collected. The collecting trips raised serious questions concerning the statusof Fragaria virginiana in the southeastern US. Is it really as rare as it appears to be in areas such as the coastal plain of South Carolina, southern Mississippi and southeastern Louisiana? People in almost every area told us how abundant wild strawberries were on their property or generally in their region, but these almost always turned out to be either Duchesnea indica, or Potentilla canadensis. The abundance of these two species was about what we had hoped for F. virginiana. | 1507734 | PI 612569 |
