| Always amazed at how much some FL scenes look like places in N. WI. albeit. very different undergrowth! +oM |

| I know - sometimes I feel like I am back in Minnesota, until I see the saw palmettos or an armadillo. There is something about these areas that reminds me of the upper midwest though. |

| fantastic photo I have a chamaecyparis henryae here very rare in cultivation I like the bright green foliage very much. |

| Nice! Taxonomically and ecologically, it is sufficiently distinct from typical White Cypress to deserve subspeciefic (rather than varietal) status, i.e. Chamaecyparis thyoides subsp. henryae. It was of course first described as a separate species (Chamaecyparis henryae), but isn't distinct enough for that. Resin |

| Sal, I'd forgotten your MN background. You do indeed then know whereof I speak! Last time I was in FL, I was frequently struck by the similarities between these two widely separated regions. I'm going to be going to Fort Myers in a couple weeks. Any special recommendations for a worthy day trip to a natural area? +oM |
