Mangrove Seedlings Available
Do you need to replant a mangrove? Have a program to repair a problem area? Want to start a mangrove area on an island? How about hundreds of seedlings FREE!
About 2 months ago now, the beautiful black mangroves along the water line of the Marco Gonzalez Archaeological Reserve dropped its’ annual seeds. There are now hundreds of sprouts about 6” to 8” tall which are in the way of our tour path. It would be a shame to pull them up and destroy when someone in need can come harvest the seedlings and replant to beautify a new area.

When planting mangroves please be aware that red mangroves are the most salt tolerant and grow around the shore edge. Black and white mangroves while salt tolerant grow best a little back from the sea shore or around inner lagoons. The ones that Coral have been planting are Red Mangroves.
