Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 11.23 – 26.93 | 12.37 – 26.65 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 15.37 – 36.47 | 16.27 – 35.93 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | 2.95 – 24.05 | 3.91 – 23.69 |

| Precipitation seasonality | 7.1 – 120.74 | 7.64 – 109.88 |
These values describe the documented climate envelope of the taxon. They are not, by themselves, a local recommendation.
Documented soil preferences
| Variable | Unit | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cation exchange capacity (CEC) | cmol(+)/kg | 8.96 – 26.84 | 11.03 – 19.75 |
| Clay | % | 21.77 – 40.73 | 25.8 – 32.6 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 5 – 11.3 | 6.9 – 9.5 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 1.5 – 3.75 | 1.98 – 2.88 |
| pH | — | 4.9 – 6 | 5.2 – 5.6 |
| Sand | % | 30.7 – 56.58 | 39.1 – 50.08 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 22.93 – 53.4 | 29.57 – 40.88 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
