We just finished expanding and deepening our pond and now I'm working on restoring the banks with native grasses, sedges, rushes, wildflowers...etc.
This plant grows over the entire bottom of the pond. I was always curious to know the exact species of plant. I don't necessarily consider it a nuisance. It stays low growing, uproots easy if fishing lures get snagged. The fish love to hide in it...etc.
Here's a link to the album. There are 3 photos
