Fakahatchee





Today, park biologist Mike Owen guided us through a dense, sub-tropical pop ash-pond apple slough at Fakahatchee Strand and showed us 9 species of epiphytic orchids (see photo of Epidendrum amphistomum), and 8 species of bromeliads (including the delicate fuzzy-wuzzy air plant, Tillandsia pruinosa).
