LOL.

, does it prefer cooler weather?

Absolutely! This is why we cover the the Demon Pond (and my Lily Pond)
with shade cloth for fall/winter/early spring. Keeps the leaves out and
keeps the sun blocked just enough so the SA can't grow, yet the dormant
lilies are not impaired by it at all. ~ jan

Does it _prefer_ cooler weather, or is it just using up the extra sunlight
now available because the lilies are dormant? I think you'd have just as
much string algae in the summer if you didn't have the lilies. I guess it
does thrive at temps where most other plants are dying back, though.


Smart man.

Yeah, sure. ;o) That's a non-committed answer, instead of, I don't really
know, and/or probably a little of both. ~ jan
