Which floating plant

I've got duckweed (thanks, best mate!?)

At this time of year my pond is as clear as anything (hence seeing all that flipping duck weed )

My ducks + herring gulls saw off the last of my fish during last year *double *

I'm going to try to the marginal route (nowt to lose, methinks) and see what happens. Hopefully, I will find my "forever home" in the next 4 years and it won't be an issue

 

It's now been banned as a potentially invasive species. Shops are allowed to sell their existing stock and then that's it.

 

Silly billy: the home I will be in for my "last stand" (this one is merely 'on loan' until that time )

 

... men ...

But, therein lies the difference: I'm not looking for job opportunities; merely, solice

 

Oh you total blighter!!! No true 'gentleman' would have highlighted my spelling faux pas
But, you speak wisely Rare, indeed.

Depends on the problem? Or, perhaps, on trust? And, 'trusted friends'?

Too deep! Let's go back to change one letter: I can do that

 

Update only a little bit of blanket showing at the moment.
Brought a big bag of pennywort of eBay and its in the pond covering approx 1/3.
We'll see how that goes (fish seems to be enjoying it anyway)

 

mowgley I have noticed a lack of blanket weed in recent weeks, but, a plethora of tadpoles! I may be wrong, but I think taddies feed on blanket weed (amongst other things, such as mosquito larvae) ? In which case, my taddies have a veritable glut going on (should I warn the taddies G.P. they may be in need of obesity advice? )

I also think fish gorge on tadpoles, which may be counter productive in terms of blanket weed? My pond is minus fish (thank you, heron gulls, from last year! )
