Hi,
I am florence and I am 12 years old, 2 years ago my family and me built a Natural swimming pool and it's starting to grow!
However, two plants have started to grow and we can't seem to identify them! They look like water Hemlock and i know its really poisonous, what is it?



This is the first plant?

The first plant does not look like hemlock per the leaves and flowers, the last picture looks like it may well be hemlock.

Your so lucky to have a natural swimming pool like that at least you know when your in there that your not going to get snagged on some underwater obstruction that often end in a young person drowning
