Okay, I have been reading through lots of threads here. The one thing that jumped out at me was people putting creeping Jenny in their ponds. My small pond has had a pea soup bloom, first time in a few years. I have ordered more plants to add to my current ones. In the meantime I have been using a sun shade over it.
Now to my question. I am plagued with creeping Jenny. My home's prior owner landscaped with it. How can I go about adding it to the pond, at least as a temporary measure? Do I just add cuttings and they root/ grow in water like a pothos houseplant?

Do you have rocks that are partially in and out of the water? You can stick cuttings between rocks. BTW, having plants with roots in direct contact with the water is an excellent solution.
