    I live in New England . I plant them in my pond but they keep getting yellow and they die. Don’t know what I’m doing wrong

    Would these be good for my Red-eared Slider turtles to eat?
    Thanks for the video! : )

    Is it normal for these plants to give babies so rapidly? I feel like mine concentrate more on producing little side shoots than they do on growing theirselves first, if that makes sense? I’d expect they should get big like the one you’re holding before making babies. Or do they just reproduce so rapidly?

      It seems to depend on the growing conditions (water quality, temp, amount of light, time of year, etc). They tend to be prolific!

      They tend to do best in indirect sunlight

    Has anoyone grown these in just soil. I have had these in dried out creek beds and they seem to root and grow in no water

      That's interesting, may have to try some experiments with that in mind. Thanks for watching!
