John, last summer I did notice what looked like grass growing at the edge and in the water of this pond. I thought it might be from the seed mixture I sowed around the new pond. However, now I don't think it is a typical grass variety. I looked at pictures and info on the Bison grass, sweet grasses, and wild rice varieties and it does have some similarities to these but also has differences, so I'm still puzzled.
Thanks for the input.
