It is when it rains.............to Carol at least. Then she goes
outside with a little yellow rubber ducky and a dead carp and plays
make believe....

But then the sun comes out and dries up the pot hole pond and wipes
her dreams away until it rains again.......

Hi,

Can anyone tell me what the weed is that is thriving in my pond?

The weed is green and floats freely on the surface of the pond. As far
as I can tell, the leaves are oval (around 3-4mm long and 2-3 mm
wide). They have a look which I think is reminiscent of the leaves of
watercress but they have no stem.

I've seen this weed on covering the surface of canals in the UK and as
a child, I seem to remember that we called it "Jinny Greenteeth"
=========================
Could it be common duckweed? It doesn't grow in my ponds because my
goldfish and koi eat every speck of it. I do see it grow in farm stock
ponds though. The frilly edged type is not eaten by my fish.

Satellite picture shows you don't have a pond. Pot holes in front a
doublewide is not a pond.
