Mayor Buddy Dyer and U.S. Senator Bob Graham put on waders and joined a 10-member City of Orlando work crew to plant pickerelweed and giant bullrush in Lake Orlando.

The plants contribute to the lake’s health by absorbing harmful nutrients and breaking wave action that contributes to lake bank erosion. The plants also provide safe habitat for small fish and animals, and they attract larger fish that live on the fringe areas and provide improved fishing opportunities.
