Elliott Chaparral Reserve (340 words) |
| The rolling topography is covered with an unusually wide variety of south coastal chaparral, much of it a nearly pure stand of greenwood, intermixed with elements of coastal sage scrub. |
| Forty-five vascular plant species have been identified on the reserve, several of which have a relatively restricted distribution, such as ashy spikemoss, bushrue, and Xylococcus. |
| The soils, formed on an Eocene conglomerate, are thin, pebbly, and leached, making the chaparral plants, particularly chamise, more stunted and open than in most other Southern California locations. |
