    All depends on the water level and whether they will have the chance to grow or not.

    If they are not able to get the water levels back down in the next week or so, don't plan on it. Water is still rising right now and is projected to top summer pool by midnight on Thursday.

    I always heard them called mustard flowers but I doubt they are any specie of mustard.

    Look up "mustard grass" - looks pretty close to me.

    The mustard grass has to grow along the water's edge first. It doesn't grow in the water.

    With the water already up when it should be growing, it doesn't look good for this year.

    The Ohio River has been way up for the last two or three weeks, limiting the amount of water that can be released by KY and Barkley Dams.

    They smoke anything in Kentucky; don't they? I hear of people smoking hams all the time.

    yah art, this is just about the way it went last year, before the flowers could bloom the water came up and stayed up, well maybe next year!
