Volunteer Bald Cypress - Taxodium distichum Seedling Update

Where there were two, now there is one.













I've got a place picked out for this survivor. This
rare occurring seedling should make it through it's
first year, it should be smooth sailing from there.
That's assuming that it survives my transplanting
skills and who knows what else folly that both
nature and man can throw at it.

The other seedling that emerged along with this one
succumbed or perhaps only crippled by that ever
presence of dampening off fungus is still holding
it's own. That is, it's in some water, quite stunted
but holds a lot of hope in this aquatic nursery, (specimen
circled in red).
