DTinIND - Okay now we know the specific name. As I recall I have never seen this plant advertized for sale commercially. There are at least a couple forum members here that have access to that plant (P.amplifolius). I got a start of it this July of 2010 from a from a gracious PBoss member. I planted a couple seed heads and a section of rooted plant in two small tubs with heavy garden dirt. As of a couple weeks ago the rooted plant still had some viable growth of stem and several leaves. Normally several weeks after most Potamogeton species develop seeds the main plant begins to die back. Next spring will determine if the plants show regrowth. If so, this will be a way for you and others to get it started. Try to remind us again in late May, June of 2011 for an up date.
