I have an overbundance of water lettuce I am offering for postage before I destroy it. Just be sure it is legal to receive in
your state.
CLOSED: Water Lettuce for you ponders
It's legal here. I'd love a stuffed box :~) My pond has lots of surface and needs shade badly. You have paypal?
Thanks!
Lana

Hi,
It is legal here also, I have nothing on top right now, as I just started the pond's back up for the year, My fish are hating the sunny day's. I would love some & can Paypal you, Thanks so much :)Anita
If you still have plenty, I'd love some too. Anything you want?
It's legal in PA cause it freezes in the winter. I'd love a couple. Let me know how much to send you & your snail mail address, or do you take paypal>? Thanks, Judy Showers (Buttoneer)
I would love some if you still have any..It is legal here...Let me know and I will get postage out asap...
Thanks,
Vickie
I'd love some, too. I want to start a water garden but was trying to find some water lettuce before I did. In my gardens in Dallas, someone sent some to me and it made my pond so clear. Let me know how much to send. thanks, hilary
If you have any left, I'd love some for postage too. I have a good sized pond with two little fish who feel a little "nekkid". LOL Thank you for sharing.
I'm gonna close this for now as I have several flat rate boxes going out. I may repost depending on how much is left when I fill the above requests.

How do you find out which state can have this plant?

Rose, it's usually illegal in states with rather warm year-round temps, like FL, TX, CA, GA, LA, MS, HI and I'm not sure who else. The problem is, for those states, it doesn't die in the winter. Birds can pick it up and carry it to a nearby river or lake where it multiplies wildly and almost can't be killed. It smothers out other water vegetation and suffocates water wildlife. Also, the tangle of roots can stop a boat dead in the water. It can be the equivalent of water kudzu in areas that don't have a "real" winter.
You can do a search for invasive species in your state. Usually when you do a search on water lettuce, you'll find a listing of the states for which it's banned.
It's such a shame it can be a hinderance because it's quite a unique little plant--one of my favorite water plants.
