Floating Plants

[DrRob]

I have a feeling I've seen it planted but not floating.

 
That's because it's Water Wisteria (hygrophilia difformis).

found a pond place that sells frogbit, water lettuce, water sprite, duckweed
however there first shipment not due to arrive for the season until next weekend...guess ill have too wait till then.

 
They do this. The pond plants don't tend to get ordered until the season begins properly, as nobody wants to plant ponds up in the snow for some reason.

The red root floater is Phyllanthus fluitans.

Now I'm confused.

He's answering my brain failure in post 7.

Got it...lack of quote made me think he was correcting the wisteria...

You'd think I would remember the name of the stuff, given that I have some.

I have a folder on my computer with the names of the plants I have with the relevant picture.  Then I never forget

 

[DrRob]

Sounds far too organised for me, but a very good idea.

I can't remember mine either. Drives me nuts that I can't.

I did not think I needed to put in a quote- sorry
