Lyrand soils have an ochric epipedon and do not have aquic conditions. Morley, Glynwood and Blount soils have an ochric epipedon. Very poorly drained. The soil has an apparent seasonal high water table that ranges from 1 foot above the surface to 1 foot below the surface from December to May in most years. The potential for surface runoff is negligible to low.
Permeability is moderately slow.
Most areas are used to grow corn, soybeans, small grains, and hay. A small part, especially areas that lack adequate drainage, is in permanent pasture or forest. The native vegetation is forest of red maple, American elm, white ash, and American basswood. The series is extensive, about 1.8 million acres. Lenawee County, Michigan, 1957.
