Duckweed : Lemna minor (Azolla mixed in)

$4.00

Plant type: aquatic plant

Height: 1-3mm


Light: full sun

Soil: none! fully aquatic and free-floating


PPL: YES


Appropriately nicknamed 'water lentil', each with 1-4 leaves and a single inch-long root hanging down. Helps to keep your pond shaded during hot summer days, and give cover to the chorus frogs.


Spreads rapidly, but easily managed with some removal with a small rake (dump on your land plants for added nutrients!).


Comes in a small bag, likely with Azolla (aka fairy moss or mosquito fern) in tow... Another free-floating native plant that comes in shades of red and green depending on the sunlight..
