Narrative
Elephant Rocks are an exposed 1.6-2.0 ha of granite rising 30 m above surrounding landscape. Large population of plants, predominant species in the rocky area and population extended into the understory of the surrounding forest at the base of the rocks. Fruit ripen at this site from late August until a hard freeze. Green fruit have been seen in late October at this site. The fruit was collected in early October 1992. Fruiting plants ranging from 1.2-4.6 m tall. Both shrub and small tree habit; trunks up to 10 cm in diameter. Leaves were glossy and dark green. Fruit ranging from dark blue to black. Fruit size from 0.4-1.0 cm in diameter. Location in crevices suggest drought tolerance; during an extreme drought in 1991, oaks (Quercus alba and Q. macrocarpa) in the area appeared to be dying from drought while the V. arboreum appeared unaffected. No visible winter injury or insect damage. Minimal disease problems; Ophiodothella spp. which doesn't appear to affect the plant and som fruit that appeared to have mummyberry (Monilinia spp.). Seed from this population were germinated and several seedlings submitted to the NCGR.
