FIRE ECOLOGY
SPECIES: Shepherdia canadensis | Russet Buffaloberry
FIRE ECOLOGY OR ADAPTATIONS :
Sprouting from surviving root crowns and establishment from seed
transported from off-site allow russet buffaloberry to survive fire
[38]. As fire suppression culminates in closed-canopy, old-growth
forests, fire generally increases russet buffaloberry density and vigor,
although full benefits may not be realized for at least 25 years [37].
POSTFIRE REGENERATION STRATEGY :
Tall shrub, adventitious-bud root crown
