Not only are these plants tough enough to tolerate the salinity of the shores, but also provide habitat and structure to sustain their coastal ecosystems. Today we look at the three most common species in our area; The Red Mangrove (R. mangle), the Black Mangrove (A. germinans) and the White Mangrove (L. racemosa) and show you how to identify them, and exactly what makes these plants so unique.
