Anyone tried putting cattails in pots, to help stop them from spreading? Yes, in a garden pond. No, they climb right out and spread unless you periodically chop off the escaping tubers. And don't forget the gazillions of tiny cattail seeds in every single cattail head that dispursed by wind and water can quickly be spread to every bank of the pond. They like shallow water. Deep water and steep banks keep them at bay. Any farm pond or road ditch I have seen them in has been in the shallows. The deep part stays open.
