Could any of you aquatic plant guys tell me what plants are native to Florida springs, and which plants are nonnative, and are intrusive to the springs. I know eel grass belongs in the springs, but Im not sure what is good and what is not good for the health of the springs. Thanks....

This site tells about the 12 worst ones: http://plants.ifas.u...invasive-plants

In addition, I've seen lots of unsightly Lyngbya. Perhaps it's not on that list because it's not technically a plant (cyanobacteria).
