State 2, Plant Community 2, Weedy Dwarf Forest.
State 3 – Weed Thicket
Plant Community 3
This state is comprised of one plant community comprised entirely of alien species. Kahili ginger is typically the dominant species, forming a dense, uniform cover about five feet tall. Strawberry guava is able to emerge through the ginger stands and may form a scattered overstory. Remnant native trees eventually die out and disappear completely.
Pathways from this state/plant community
There is no evidence that this plant community shifts to any other plant community through succession. Total removal of existing weedy vegetation followed by ongoing weed control would be necessary to establish a different plant community.
