Re: Philo's and wet feet
Here in the Orlando area there are a lot of lakes. I have seen P. selloum
and x evansii growing along shorelines. During times of high rainfall,
these plants are in standing water for months at a time. Also, some homes
have seawalls that might be 2-5 feet above the water. These Philos have
dropped roots down over the seawalls and into the water.
