Ulele Spring is located on a property owned by a private business who contracted AquaTech Eco Consultants through Ecosphere to restore two basins of the Ulele Spring with SAV. The lower basin of the spring is connected to the Hills-borough River, resulting in a slightly saline envi-ronment. AquaTech installed 600 H. wrightii PU’s and 200 V. americana in the lower basin. In the upper basin, which is entirely fresh, AquaTech installed 3,000 V. americana and 1,000 S. subulata., as well as a supplemental 1,500 plants of P. floridanus.
