The first plant I put on the natural floating Islands I have was a pickerel weed. 2 years ago I got a scrawny half dead pickerel plant at the Lowes garden section, It was on sale for 3 bucks (I'm kinda cheap), so I got it to put on one of the islands. Later that summer I gathered about 8 pickerel plants from the lake nearby and put them on the Islands.
All the plants survived and grew well like everything else growing on those Islands.
Here's that scrawny little plant after 2 years.
