Bill,
Mine are in a bog. No pots. Most of my pond plants have been unpotted
over the years. Kinda just tucked under a rock or two... Seems the roots
being exposed, clean and purify the water a whole lot better that way.
Besides, I couldn't stand the smell when I had to repot them.... and who
has time for that! Easier to just yank them out when someone wants a
start :)
