Figure 3. Average number of nodes per main ramet across dune microhabitats. Error bars
denote standard deviation.

         The average number of lateral ramets per main ramet was 6.75 in the foredune, 3.67 in
the dune, 2.87 in the swale, 3.5 in the shellhash, and 2.67 in the backdune (Figure 4).

bards denote standard deviation.

         The average number of inflorescences on a whole plant were 4 in the foredune, 0.63 in
the dune, 0.88 in the swale, one in the shellhash and 0.59 in the backdune (Figure 5).
