Project Noah Nature School
A sapling. Leaves averaging 8" long, often longer. Rich green, smooth, shiny, somewhat leathery. No odor when torn. These were very common along the path in a hardwood hammock.
Along the Juniper Springs Run... a stream flowing out of the main spring head. Ground was moist, and very rich in organic matter. Several of these of differing sizes were found along the trail.
Is this Loblolly Bay, anyone?
Sure Looks like it-- but maximum isn't in Florida.... I'll search for a similar local species. Thanks for the suggestion ! This one (and that turtle!) are driving me bonkers!
