Tell me more. I remember Roark as one with lots of useful stored data
that he shared. Can't recall any of his comments about plants in the
pond. If he says they support snails, I think I agree.

I loved his sense of humor. :-)

Awww, the poor chap must never have got to know what the good stuff can
do

I've enjoyed looking at all the beautiful pictures of lilies on the
posted URL, but never considered lilies very useful, just decorative,
except for a bit of shade. Mine were always potted and fertilized and
could have even contributed to some algae growth, although that was
not intended.

I use them for shade and love the flowers.

Ingrid has good things to say about water celery as a filtering plant.
I've never tried it, but have a pot with Oenthe javanica'Flamingo
growing in a sheltered spot and plant to try it this summer. What's
your favorite?

I have a mix of pond plants. The more the merrier.......
