I bought a house with a water garden and have found this group to be a
great resource in learning about the pond. The predominant plant in my
pond is something that I have been unable to identify and can't find on
any pond supply store's website. I have posted a picture he

Can you help identify what it is? It is incredibly invasive and has a
messy floating root system.
thanks!
==================================
Why not just remove 99% of it? Some of these pond plants will completely
take over if you don't use some control measures. Parrots feather, water
hyacinth and water lettuce are invasive weeds in my ponds/pools. Every few
weeks I carry some off to the compost pile. If I didn't they would cover
the entire surface of the water.
