Very cool! The blooms are really neat too! I might have to try growing some of these like this!

Oh wow! That is just stunning! I definitely want to try it! I think I see some duckweed in there too? Just on the surface? How do you keep that from taking over?

You can't keep duckweed from taking over. What I did was eradicate. Just kept taking out every day.
THe ones in the picture are actually floating ferns called Salvinia. Since its so big, its easier to control.

Wow! I thought it looked larger than duckweed, but I'm not good at judging the size of things by photos. It's very cute! |

The Duckweed is the smaller stuff stuck to the rocks. The big floating ones are the Salvinia.
