This is how I grow my duckweed so it doesn't wash away.
Common Duckweed, also known as Lesser Duckweed, is a common floating plant found in ponds, marshes, lakes, and quiet streams.
It is one of the smallest flowering plants in the world. Common Duckweed is usually seen in thick mats, covering the surface of the water, often along with other species of duckweeds.
Duckweed does not have stems or leaves. It has a round, slightly oval-shaped body, called a "frond." A small root-like structure, known as a "rootlet," hangs down from underneath. Fronds tend to grab each other, forming the thick mats.
Common Duckweed fronds are usually pale green, but can be a reddish-purple, and are no bigger than 10 millimeters.
