Bruno soils, on slightly higher positions, have a sandy particle-size class. Buncombe and Ochlockonee soils are on slightly higher parts of natural levees and are coarse-loamy. Cahaba, Kalmia, State, and Wickham soils are on adjacent low terraces and have argillic horizons. The somewhat poorly drained Chewacla soils and poorly drained Wehadkee soils are in slightly lower positions. Runoff is slow.
Permeability is moderate.
These soils flood for short periods mostly in winter or early spring months. Chiefly in woodland. Native vegetation is forests of sweetgum, oak, beech, yellow poplar and loblolly pine. The series is moderately extensive.
