Landscape Narrative	The vegetation in this large area is extremely homogeneous. The Sagittaria latifolia covers acres of this farm type field. It appears to be periodically inundated, but is only moist now. The Leersia and Polygonum are scattered throughout at varying degrees. A shallow pond and ditch to the creek has been dug and the water is green with nutrients. Therre is some Phalaris arundinacea along the creek and also along other edges of the community.
