water fern (azolla); was water celery
 

Azolla makes a great mulch; just heap it up around plants. Takes a while
to break down and holds in moisture. Looks good as a mulch as well. Used
it around bamboo, and in veggie garden. I finally removed all of it from
pond as its tiny roots create a lot of debris, and the dogs thought it
was lawn (can't forget the picture of dog's legs moving above pond in
mid-air just like in the cartoons, then dog falling straight down into
water and coming back up with totally surprised look on face -- teehee!!)

It also has more nitrogen than other plants and mulches.....I read it was
almost as good as clover. Jerri

Ewww, Azolla. I found it a pain in the Lily Pond, looks messy if you have
any flying debris, which, in the desert we always seem to have. ~ jan

Actually, the place where the pond is is a bit of a leaf catcher. The
azolla catches and holds the leaves/keeps them out of the water. Then
i just pick them off instead of out.
