Flora of marsh is interesting, central
part fills up + there cow lilly [lily] is dominant
with a sparse mixture of arrow? weed.
around this is an area dominated by
small juncus + a coarse sedge or
sparganium; slightly higher the cotton
grass dominates the moist areas + 2 or
3 sedges the drier areas - Mixed in
are bog myrtle, potentilla + a violet.
still nearer the margin the sedge gives
way to a mixture of sedge + grass,
this extends to the shrub border
which is an associes of crabapple,
salal + red cedar. The absence of
willow on the islands is noteable. Just
the one species seen so far.
