Here's the list.
Pic. 1 - Water Hyacinth, wait til next year.
Pic. 2 - Lillies, they all look bad and have bugs. look at
the one in the shadows w/round cts in the leaves.
Pic. 3 - Water Lettuce, annual get next year.
Pic. 4 - Lillies look fair at best. Spade leaf lilly may be a Japanese pond
lily which I have no experience with. Clump plant laying on it's
side looks like a cattail. Don't buy, find. Plant w/spade shaped
leaf looks like lizards Tail, get it. Sedge of some sort in back,
would also get that one if they come down in price.
Pic. 5 - Thalia, not hardy in my area so I don't use. Is a grest plant
though.
Pic. 6 - Looks like dwarf Horsetail. Those plants look good and could be
split to make into several clumps. Can be invasive, but can
be controlled.
Pic. 7 - Cut Rice Grass, avoid.
Pic. 8 - Small Yellow leaf, Creeping Jenny (Lysimachia nummularia). Buy
it in the ground cover section of the garden center. Same plant,
prob. cheaper and fuller plants. Just rinse soil from roots and
plant along the edge.
Pic. 9 - Parrots Feather, marginally hardy by me. i Uuse it as annual by
me. Looks good around flowing water. Will run and float along
surface.
Pic.10 - Small clump in right hand corner is Hair Grass (eleocharis). Looks
good and that plant can be split several times. Can also be
in the wild, thats where mine came from. Likes shallow water.
Check to see if the lilly next to it has a tag. Looks to be a
dwarf w/those small leaves. If it is I would get it. I have a
very simialr looking leaf on my pink dwf. lilly. Never any probs.
Looks like some more lizards tail that is growing accross the
surface instead of upright. Others look better.
Pic.11 - Grass like foliage looks good, but not for 12 bucks. If it goes on
sale I would get it as it seems to developing some nice purple
fall color. Unknown on the species though.
Pic.12 - Iris or Sweet Flag (Acorus sp.) If you break or crush a leaf, it
will smell nice. Had to say exactly what it smells like. Either way,
I would get them for the edges and bog.
Pic.13 - Water clover (marsilea mutica) Cool plant, but i don't use since
it is not hardy in Zone 5.
Pic.14 - Lizards Tail (saururus cernuus) the upright plant. They look
decent. Again, if they go one sale or they do a deal get them.
Small Thalia or Pickerel Weed in the bin next to it in upper right
hand corner. If Pickerel Weed (ponterdia cordata) get it. Or,
it is a native and can be found in wetlands in shallow water.
Pic.15 - Water clover
Pic.16 - Red stems unknown?
Pic.17 - Iris or Sweet flag, both good.
Pic.18 - Lettuce and Iris. Def. iris as the rhizome is visable.
