Three-Square Bulrush

Pending NPSOT review

The conditional entry. We don’t know yet how long the pocket actually holds water — this is our first year watching it. If it stands into early summer, three-square goes into the deepest spot for tall structure and root mass. If the pond quits by May, we skip it. The decision waits on a year of data.

StatusA working first pass, being reconciled against NPSOT and USDA PLANTS. Corrections welcome at [email protected].
