I wouldn't do it. Especially if you have Koi. Nothing worse than thinking
you saved $40 in getting the plants free from wild, but then create more
problems for yourself costing in to the hundreds and yet your fish still
die?

Getting plants from most of the folks here maybe safer because we tend to
keep our ponds disease free as much as possible!

Would it be safe to pull lilypads, grasses etc from wild ponds or could
that introduce diseases etc?
