Swamp

Here is a nice picture of a Florida swamp or wetlands. The green stuff covering the water is not really algea or scum. It is duckweed which is a plant with very small leaves that can cover over water. It looks solid enough to walk on it, but it isn't. Duckweed is a plant you can buy for your pond or swamp!
