information: "Water Milfoil" is a common
tropical aquarium plant. It is not winter hardy in Colorado. It
spends most of it life submerged nearly out of sight, raising to
the surface in summer to flower. "Water Milfoil" is a oxygenating plant that can be over wintered indoors in a well
lit aquarium.
Plant in spring after danger of frost has passed by dropping
weighted sections directly into the pond. Propagate by pulling
off sections... adding weight and re-submerging them. Recommended
for small to large ponds.
There are two other varieties of Myriophyllum grown in ponds.
Look for Myriophyllum spicatum and Myriophyllum verticillatum.
