| Comments | Growing in large patches in ornamental koi pond adjacent to larger modified pond (Burchell's Pond) that in turn flows into Miacomet pond via a ditch and sheet flow during times of high water. While not yet in middle pond or Miacomet yet as far as we can tell, it seems possible that the plant could migrate during flooding into the modified pond and then on to Miacomet Pond.
