@MostlyTato Ok, can you give me some plant names, so I can look them up? So far I know a lot about edible plants in a food forest. But for the categories of "floating leaf plants" and "oxygenators" no list of options pops into my mind. Trimming should not be a blocker. Do you have book recommendations? I want to create pond(s) in my food forest. But I also don't wanna use plastic liners as water barriers. So I'm a bit torn on how to do a project like that most ecofriendly. @MyWildlifeAllotment
