Hello!
I have quite a bit of duckweed. I have a small pond by the house and a bigger one by barn for ducks and poultry. When my duckweed gets to thick i put it in the big pond and the ducks and geese love it. I also have some of what the guy who gave it to me called sweet grass. It is small spikey leaves that are striped green and white. The leaves stick up about 8 inches out of water. I would love to trade for both or one of your items. whatever is fair to you.
Thanks! George

I will take you up on this trade,, I would like as much as you can send me of the duckweed. How do I keep it alive in the winter? I had some before but the fish ate it so fast it had no chance to spread. I can send out on monday.

I am looking for a pic of them. I only have 1 of each to share right now but I may be getting more ok. I will let you know. They were given to me a few weeks ago by a preacher who breeds them and has acers and acers of every iris you could imagine. Let me check to see what I have but I know I have only 1 of each of these.
