Hi

Firstly , I have been a silent reader of UKAPS for a while and I have to say, this is by far the best resource for planted tank enthusiasts all over the world and not just the UK. The wealth of content here makes it more and more interesting for novices like me to delve deeper into the planted tank hobby. The scientific/technical expertise available in the forum is fantastic for those who want to learn the science behind growing plants successfully. Just wanted to thank all of you contributors for making this a quality repository for information, useful for beginners, intermediates and experts alike.

Coming to the point of the thread, I absolutely love collecting plants from the wild when I can and use them in my tank or in glass vases with water. It feels like an achievement when the plants show new growth in captivity! However, its also a frustrating experience because I simply have no way to ID the plants and find out if they are aquatic,semi aquatic or even terrestrial.

I just needed some quick help with identifying a few plants I came across in my recent visit. I have been trying to ID these plants but my incompetence with Botany has hindered me to a great extent. I was hoping one of you with expertise on the subject could shed some light in terms of identifying the plants in question. Also, a brief 'flow chart' for identifying plants for beginners like me would be very helpful for future trips.

Any help on this will be appreciated!
