Subject: Species native to Florida needed!


    Hello again everyone!

            I want to thank everyone who contributed to my request for
"backyard bog" info and tips. Here's what I did: First a bought a (small)
plastic childrens pool. I dropped it into a hole I dug (my wife had a
heartattack, hehehe) and filled it with a peat/sand mix (peat is EXPENSIVE
here in Florida, but sand is free....) and covered the entire thing in a
thin layer of moss (some Deer, some Sphagnum) mostly for aesthetics. Now
here's my dilemma. I have 2 plants in it. I have LOTS of extra room. I
would like natives to Florida for it, but I know neither which species I
should plant or where to get them. Can any of you help again? Thanks in
advance! =) Happy feeding!!!! (BTW- I have some BEAUTIFUL potted Neps
that are doing WONDERFUL thanks also to the advice from the list!)
