Hi,

I am just setting up my 5'x7' pond and need some oxygenating plants plus other plants that will add to water quality. Might people in the New York area have Water Hyacinth, Pickeral, and oxygenating plants to give away? I live near the Brooklyn Botanical Gardens and will meet you in Brooklyn or Manhattan.

Here is a list of some oxygenators:

Parrot Feather

Anacharis (Egeria densa)

Bacopa (Bacopa caroliniana)

Cabomba, Purple (Cabomba pulcherrima)

Foxtail (Myriophyllum heterophyllum)

Hornwort (Ceratophyllum demersum)

Jungle Val (Vallisneria americana)

Moneywort (Bacopa monnieri)

Dwarf Sagittaria (Sagittaria subulata)

Red Ludwegia

Ranunculus aquatilis. water crowfoot

Thank you
