I have long been driving, hiking, swimming, biking around the rural areas I live. Today it's a nice warm spring day in Northern CA. I look for wood, for rock, for wildflowers, waterfalls, trees, anything of interest, and I also look for aquatic plants.

 

CA is not really known for aquatic plants, mostly aquatic "weeds", but there are many species here.

 

This one always throws aquarist for a curve.

And what I was originally after:

This plant looks like a cross between Rotala macrandra and Ammania gracilius.

Grows in deeper pools , about 2ft deep, flowing water always........has a very pretty red color.

 

Enjoy,

What Real manzanita driftwood is suppose to look like, not those silly floral arrangement pieces.........

Yes, I have several of these trees.

 

Now for the plants: this was at Table Mt near Oroville, at the peak flower display, I've seen some parts in better shape, but it's still awesome. there are also 6 large water falls, no less than about 30-100+ ft and really cool lava rock all over.

 

And you can see for 100 miles in most directions.
