Should I look at planting this type of vegetation or should I leave it alone? I would rather not have something that is going to hinder what I am looking at accomplishing. I can build a shelf on the front side of the pond to support the aquatic vegetation if it is desired, but I do not have to if it will hurt the chances of what I want to accomplish.
