Notes:
This pond plant showed up in my 6 x 10-foot pond. I did not plant it. It has spread by long runners and is covering a large portion of my pond. Can you please identify this plant for me. Thanks so much.

Without flowers to narrow down more, I can only speculate for now. Maybe one of the species in the Hydroclaris genus ? Check out the included link below for the American frogbit species (H. spongia) and see if you have a match. Click on images to enlarge. Flowers can help to confirm ID. When it blooms and you still don’t know please post photos of flowers. Best wishes!
