I ended up with sawgrass all around the edges of my pond. It is beautiful green, baby fish love it, birds love the seeds, and it has filtered the runoff very well. Only gets about 48-60 inch tall and only grows out to about 12 inch of water. I like it a lot!! Also easy to weedeat down if you need to.

Dear Alcohol, We had a deal where you would make me funnier, smarter, and a better dancer... I saw the video... We need to talk.
