About this listen

Most plants can’t survive the demands of “wet feet.” Usually, too much water causes them to wilt and virtually “meltdown,” as they become bloated and soggy. But there are a few hardy plants that know exactly how to deal with this problem—in fact wetland grasses, sedges, rushes, mosses, ferns, horsetails were the first plants to evolve on Earth and are, indeed, the ancestors of the garden trees, bushes, and flowers that we grow today.

So today, we take a walk through a wetland and its surrounding area, specifically to see if we can see some of the major plants that grow in wetlands and, at the same time, learn a little about why they are important, investigate how we can recognize them, and examine their techniques for survival.
