Tracy,

I think you are spot on with your assessment with respect to sunlight. I suspect many of the marginals I planted did not survive because I planted them at low pool. When Ma Nature brought rain that put them under 4 feet of water for several weeks, they died off. I am going to try some of them again but plant them much higher up on the shore. Hopefully, that and improved pond visibility, do to erosion control efforts implemented since the last planting, will provide a better result.
