Landscape Narrative	The outlet back to the creek is to the north near plot 7. A few Sagittaria latifolia plants are near the plot as well as a larger Platanus occidentalis. There are a few clumps of Leersia oryziodes near the north end of the plot.;This is a lower area away from the creek and beside a hill. The area is periodically flooded and probably doesn't drain quickly. Salix nigra trees are scattered throughout.
