Vegetation associated with the " Greenwood and Dawson soils, 0 to 1 percent slopes" soil map unit. These soils formed in decaying herbaceous organic material 40 to more than 130 centimeters (16 to 51 inches) thick overlying
sandy deposits. Mean annual precipitation is about 735 mm (29 inches), and mean annual
temperature is about 6 degrees C (43 degrees F). Depth of the seasonal high water table ranges
from 30 centimeters (1 foot) above the surface to 30 centimeters (1 foot) below the surface from September to June. Trees struggle to grow on these soils, with black spruce and tamarack comprising the major species. Ground cover is composed of bog rosemary, cranberries, laurel, leatherleaf, sphagnum mosses, and blueberries.
