Landscape Narrative	Small sulfur spring run through Oklawaha River floodplain, swamp, streambed 5-10 feet wide with numerous broader sections; water clear but cloudy, 6-12 inches deep, emitting sulfur smell. Closed canopy of Taxodium distichum mixed with various broadleaf trees such as Magnolia virginiana, Nyssa biflora, Acer rubrum, Fraxinus pennyslvanica.
