On March 30 2017, I went to see area Nine.One where biologists and park service people have placed and flagged over 1600 plants, including 1400 trumpet pitcher plants, in the ground. Technically, the label is DL09_01, which means it is subparcel 1 in Deer Lake Management Zone 9. At this time last year, biologists John Bente and Jeff Talbert introduced me to the restoration project at this site. On wholeo.net/Trips/Travel/Florida/srb/DeerLake/2017dlsp/dlsp2017nine.oneYoutTube.htm see a transcript of the dialog from the 2016 video, for background.
About this year, 2017, Jeff says, "They (carnivorous including pitcher plants) are doing well there and we augmented the population with the planting. All we've done is cut the regrowth (of titi primarily) and burned it."
This movie shows what Nine.One looks like this year. You see what the head-mounted GoPro camera sees, with pop-up photos as I zoom into details with my other camera. First come the established carnivorous plants in the natural boggy area. Then comes the quarter of a mile stretch that had been previously cleared of overgrown titi, recently cut, cleared and burned in preparation for the large planting and flagging of new seedlings.
