This community is dominated by Aegopodium podagraria. It occurs in both natural and anthropogenic habitats which are occasionally disturbed, e.g. forest edges and scrub in river floodplains, disturbed banks of streams and fishponds, roadsides or unmanaged places in gardens, parks and cemeteries. Soils are mesic, loamy to loamy-sandy and rich in nutrients. Due to its ability to spread vegetatively through extensive rhizomes Aegopodium podagraria is able to persist for a long time on particular sites. Its stands are common across the whole of the Czech Republic, especially in colline to submontane areas.
