For the second time, the previous being some 23 years ago, the marsh is being considered for planting. Last time it was unviable but now there is a breach from the river to the marsh flat land Peter Nicholson oftamarvalley-nl.org.ukhas arranged to visit this May 22nd around 10:30. So will see what the view is then.
UPDATE: 22nd
Well Peter was pleasant and was happy to look around. We spent the at least 2h30m along the bund and then back through the wetlands etc. Although Peter agreed that it's covered in well establish growth they may come back and look at one small patch of 'clear mud' area.

Sadly after a week they still all look pale and about to give up the ghost. Maybe in another couple of weeks there will be some colour in their stems.

I have been told that they die right back in winter and hopefully in late spring they will produce new shoots.

Thanks for that, they look much healthier than ones I put in on a creek in the Tavy the day before we put those in. Again thanks for taking the trouble to checking on them and giving me the details of frequency of flooding. I was going to send you the photographs I took but yours are much better so I will not bother.
