I think this is a cold season plant, at least for louisiana, right???
Just hoping I'll have time to root it before winter


I've heard "cold season" too, but it was 95 here yesterday,
the pond water is 81 and my water crest is growing
like mad.
As far a other pond plants go, based on what Home Depot
charges for them, I've pulled about $1k worth of plants
out of the pond the morning, and there's at least that
much more to do.
It got so bad my wife kept asking if we still had any fish...
The plants made a solid cover on the pond except where
the feeding ring is located.

Happy ponding.
