Ponds gone wild
Cattails that have invaded the koi pond from a nearby wetland are limited to a small section of the shallows by more vigorous pickerel weed (Pontederia cordata), yellow flag iris (Iris pseudacorus), and less aggressive variegated leaf cattails planted in this bog area of the pond years ago. The native cattails are on the far side of this pond that becomes more wild in appearance each year. I’m inclined to leave well enough alone. Ponds gone wild – Ramblin' through Dave's Garden
