Timing of mowing is critical in our area (NJ Pine barrens)---we've lost a number of populations of native orchids and pine barrens gentians, etc. because mowing was too early in the season; otoh, complete cessation of mowing allows for succession which again can be problematic for some of our rarer plants that don't don't handle competition well (Schwalbea americana, for instance).
