Default Pics of the Plant Fest in Florida

Ricky has put up more pics of the Rainbow River and the lower Suwanee
and Rum island etc.

Some are quite good IMO.

A couple are good submersed shots and give a good idea of what
everyone else missed out on. Not a bad dinner either.

Both the rivers are characterized as hard clear water, the Santa Fe at
Rum island is a tannic red color soft acid river.

You all can watch your computer screen or you can get out and do these
types of things. Do the Discovery Channel rather than watch
it..........

Tom Barr

tree under the ichetucknee?

It's an alga, Dicotomosiphon tuberosus.

What's that plant under the lower suwannee?


There are a number of plants there, Ludwigia repens, Utricularia
stellaris, Proserpinaca palustris, I found many species there.

But the big plant is Sagittaria lancifolia, it's huge. Don't even
consider it. 5 feet tall etc, leaves some 12+inches across. Nice
flowers though, some as big as orchid flowers and as pretty.
