Spadderdock (Nuphar luteum) and Arrowhead (Sagittaria spp.) are extremely common freshwater wetland plants found in ponds, ditches, creeks, and in shallower parts of the main channel of the Suwannee. I photographed these earlier in the week on the Lower Suwannee National Wildlife Refuge.
Never knew what these beautiful flowers were called.
ReplyDeleteThere are several arrowheads (genus Saggitaria) in our area, and lately I have learned that this one is probably Saggitaria falcata, "Duck Potato."
