Moist Evergreen Observations
- California Blackberry Rubus ursinus- These vines like moist shady climates best. They thrive in disturbed areas and are able to adapt easily to various climates.
- Kingdom Fungi- Not sure what kind of mushrooms these are. However, it was interesting that they were growing along the exposed roots of a redwood. The general area was more sunny however these mushrooms were thriving tucked into a shadier side of the tree.
- Trametes versicolor- "Turkey Tail" was another mushroom I saw living directly on a dead tree branch. They are adapted to moist evergreen forests by their growth from dead hardwood.
- Lichen- Lichen loves moist and shady areas. Much like the mushrooms lichen tends to live on the shadier side of trees and rocks.
- Coast Redwood (Sequoia sempervirens)- They grow very large which allows them to compete more effectively for sunlight in the forest. The many branches allow for water caching to occur. They are resistant to fire and send out new shoots very quickly after one occurs.
- Wood Fern- While there are some ferns that can survive drier sunnier locations, most prefer wet and shaded areas. Their extended leaves would be ideal for catching the largest amount of moisture from the overgrowth.
