in hardwood production. However, new markets are needed for hardwood
 production, such as furniture stock, to keep these areas in hardwood
 production.

 This community has a moderately high potential productivity for commercial
 wood production. There are moderate equipment limitations and seedling
 mortality due to wet soil conditions and plant competition. The
 commercial species for planting are slash pine and loblolly pine.
 Potential annual growth is 1.2 and 1.0 cords per acres respectively.
 Potential productivity is 18 percent less for soils south of a line from
 Hernando to Orange Counties.

5. Urbanland

 This community is subject to high water tables during the rainy seasons
 and has limitations for urban development. Water management systems are
 required for urban uses. It is usually difficult to establish vegetation
 on steep channel side slopes and infertile spoil. Special planting and
 management techniques may be required. Without vegetation, erosion and
 sedimentation is often a problem in water management systems. Wind
 erosion can also become a problem in unvegetated areas. This is
 especially severe in the spring.

 Native plants can be used for beautification and require minimum
 establishment and maintenance. Some of the trees are American holly,
 cabbage palm, dahoon holly, fringetree, hawthorns, live oak, loblolly bay,
 loblolly pine, longleaf pine, red maple, slash pine, southern magnolia,
 red cedar, sugarberry, swamp chestnut oak, sweetgum, and water oak. Some
 of the shrubs are American beautyberry, shining sumac, yaupon holly,
 sawpalmetto, and waxmyrtle. Some of the herbaceous plants are aster,
 blackeyed Susan, cone flowers, dayflower, rose-mallow, meadowbeauty, and
 sunflower.

 The most important urban wildlife is songbirds and squirrel. Undisturbed
 areas provide good escape cover and travel routes for deer, turkey,
 raccoon, and similar forms of wildlife.
