Visited a local bog

[Wolfn]

I went to the local Flatwoods park here in Florida. I hiked along a bike trail until I spotted a marshy field nearby.


Unfortunately, I only saw two CPs: D. Capillaris and U. Subulata. I'm told the park also has Pinguicula and Sarracenia minor, but I didn't see any of those. I'll be going again in the spring and will hopefully find more.

Nice! The little 'dew on the second last pic looks more like D. brevifolia to me.

Cool, I've always find forests in the four seasons countries more....tidier in some sense. I mean, it looks like you can just take a 'walk in a park' through those woods compared to tropical rainforests here.

I can't wait till spring to see those other CPs you mentioned!

I was thinking that too. It's very small and the leaves are more wedge-shaped. If that's the case, that's the only Drosera I saw. No capillaris.

I did visit this park in November so I guess most of the annual species died off.

What county is it in? I can look at the distribution maps and see what Sarracenia are there. It looks like it's in good shape.

This is the park I went to:

There should be S. minor, D. capillaris, D. intermedia, U. subulata, U. cornuta, U. gibba, U. inflata, U. juncea, U. purpurea, U. resupinata, and U. simulans. If you did find D. brevifolia it's a county record.

How about Pinguiculas?
