Duckweeds are very small, floating perennial plants that are found worldwide. There are about 20 species in three genera. Depending on the size and type of pond you have, duckweed can be very beneficial. At the same time, it can also be a big problem.

Another interesting fact about duckweed: it is one of the few (the only other one I know of is seaweed) plants that have B12. So maybe good for vegan food production.

Great video! I tend to just let it grow and occasionally scoop it out and toss it in my compost.

It does make good compost material because of taking the nutrients out of the water.

I love your Perennial hibiscus! I have 3 varieties myself.

Thanks, I have several more around the pond. Are yours in the perennial garden or around the shoreline of a pond?

@@agreenerview Perennial garden bordering my house. I live near Buffalo NY, where in their tropical appearance and massive blooms prove to be especially ostentatious.

Thanks for the information. I have a small duck pong and it use to get covered by duck weed and I was skimming it all the time. Then I planted some Bull Rushes and I do not get duck weed unless the air temperature goes over 75 degrees, and then when the temperature drops the duck weed goes away.

The rushes are taking some of the nutrients out of the water and competing with the duckweed. I prefer flowering plants along the edges of the pond. Sounds like you have a good system.
