Very nice. Incidentally, that's Puccini's Nessun Dorma. Pavarotti just made it famous by having it be a big encore piece for him. And I guess it's accurate, since it (or the entire aria) means "No one will sleep"... [until we find P. primuliflora? because of Smilax?] :-)

Thanks, I was lost Did any of you fellas notice the unusual shrubs growing in the red D. filiformis habitats? The tall slender ones with needlelike leaves, peeling bark and copper colored wood. They caught my attention, suspected they were Hypericum but looked very different from the typical plants that are so common in bogs in the panhandle. They had an 'exotic' look to me. Reminisce of the invasive Melaleuca trees found all over south Florida with the similar peeling bark. Some web research and found they are Hypericum lissophloeus , native and listed as endangered. Only growing in this small area. Hopefully these habitats will be protected. They sure are different. www.plantatlas.usf.edu/main.asp?plantID=1075
