Thank you From the USDA: It tolerates low fertility and partial sunlight and temporary inundation to 20 inches, but flourishes in fully exposed fertile soils (pH: 6.0 to 8.0), and permanently inundated up to 12 inches deep in freshwater (<3 parts per thousand salinity .).

I have seen pickerel weed in 2ft of water. Bill, did it grow out to that depth, or did the pond water level rise?
