Although the freshwater swamp seen in this picture is dominated by cypress trees, other freshwater swamps found in Florida can be dominated by bay trees (i.e. sweetbay, sweet gum) or hardwoods (i.e. oak, elm, red maple). Other plants found in swamps include epiphytes (air plants) growing on trees, vines, and ferns.ammocks may contain many different species of trees such as the sabal palm, live oak, red maple, mahogany, gumbo limbo and cocoplum. Many types of epiphytes (air plants) and ferns can be found here as well.
Plants Provide an Important Source of Food. The plants of the Swamp provide year round food for the wildlife of the Swamp. Even in the cold weather of winter, plant material is a critical food source. Many of the songbirds that stay north in the winter congregate in the Swamp. In the wet meadows and the shrub swamp areas they can find many plants with winter seeds as well as shrubs with berries that remain most of the winter. Wetland shrubs like Black Alder provide seeds. Vines of wild grape and bittersweet provide berries, although the grapes are all usually eaten early in the season.
