Hiya Mossy. This is a lovely picture. May I ask, what is the green thing in your pond? Please.

Hello Michaella, Thank you for your nice comment, if you are talking about what is actually on the water, it is a micro algae that I bought a few years ago, to bring a lot of oxygen to the water, like this I do not need to change the water at all. If you are talking about the actual plant in the water, it is a colocasia that I dearly love. Regards, Fabrice

You must tell me the name of this micro algae please.

Love this, a real little secret oasis.

i love the urn and that tall goosefoot type plant

I would love to add another water feature like this. Is that green floating stuff like Duck Weed?

Hi there the goosefoot type plant as you say is actually Colocasia esculenta illustris

I'd never heard of helpful algae before! it had only ever been mentioned in the context of pest needing to be cleared up. I'll have to check this out

Yes, you are right Franl 155,this was a very wrong information from the nursery when I bought it a very very long time ago .This plant Azolla filiculoides( I think ) have to be canalized every year if it is not the very cold weather that kill it !!!anyway ,still like it very much and don't think you have any probleme with it in you pond Franl 155 lol

I think I'll find an altervaative, that sounds too much like hard work. but then, most worthwhile things involve had work
