Duck Pond People- Need plants?

Hornwart

Frogbit.

 

Clearly I need to clean my camera lense. Anyhow. I started out with 5 little frogbit pieces. In a month It's quadrupled in size. They have an incredible root system that I really should have taken a picture of.

 

I could send 5 people 3 starter plantlets of frogbit.

 

Hornwart is a floating aquarium plant but has great bio filter capabilities, thus my purchase of it. It's tripled in size. I can send 2 people 1 starter stalk.

 

I cannot send anything outside of the continental U.S.

 

You may get snails or duckweed in your shipment.

 

This is FREE btw. I'm celebrating the completion of my duck pond.

As seen here. Obviously not done with the entire run as the fence isn't up. :( My pond is 14x30 with the duck open area being 14x16 and the biological filter being 14x14. :)

 

It has a wind berm around the biological filter part.

 

Oh so happy!

 

WARNING: I have no idea if frogbit is toxic. Hornwart is not.

 

IF YOU HAVE A POND PLANT AND WISH TO LOVINGLY SEND A START MY WAY I WILL BE EXTREMELY APPRECIATIVE!

I'm zone 5 so anything 5+ would do well. These aren't the type of plants that need to be wintered inside. Should all go to seed and come back in the spring though I'll be taking some starts inside since it's my first year and I'm the nervous type. :P

Have you checked shipping? may not be worth it  to ship across country. Shipping is so expensive.

Well I'm not charging anyone. I'm doing this at my own expense.
