Rm_Rimini sandRm-Rimini sand, 1 to 6 percent slopes.
This excessively drained soil is around the rims of bays and on broad smooth flats on the uplands. Areas
are irregular in shape and small in size. Most of the acreage is forested. The rest is used for residential or
industrial sites. The native vegetation consists of scattered longleaf pine, turkey oak, sand post oak,
scattered dwarf myrtle, and huckleberry.
Typically, the surface layer is dark gray sand 3 inches thick. The subsurface layer is light gray sand 53 inches
thick. The subsoil, to a depth of 80 inches, is dark reddish brown sand in the upper part and dark brown
sand in the lower part.
Included with this soil in mapping are small areas of Lakeland, Kureb, and Leon soils. Also included are
small areas of soils that have slopes of more than 6 percent.
The organic-matter content of the surface layer is very low. Permeability is moderate, available water
capacity is very low, and shrink-swell potential is low. Reaction is strongly acid or very strongly acid
throughout where this soil has been limed. The seasonal high water table is below a depth of 6 feet.
Droughtiness and leaching of plant nutrients are the main limitations in the use and management of this
Soil. Irrigation, soil conditioners, and fertilizer are needed to establish lawn grasses, shrubs, and trees.
