Pond Boss Forums AQUATIC VEGETATION Balance of plants in the environment Tips for controlling Willow trees on dam?

Willows give off that white fluffy pollen that I hate with a passion next to the poplar tree. Anyone willing to plant any of these is really hard up for a tree.

The junk any tree other than a pine or spruce puts into a ponds water is just polluting your pond with organics.

Find your self some four foot scotts pine or a local pine and plunk it by the shore on the south side. It will shade your pond quick enough. In five years you will have a very very nice tree.

Cheers Don.

P.S. cheap easy way to kill any tree is to pound in some copper nails into the tree.
