Have you heard of the ‘Kinta Weed’? These plants usually grow in tin mining ponds (they are probably hard to find now).

The funny thing is, this ‘weed’ doesn’t really grow in the water; they actually perch on top of other aquatic plants – preferring the sun rather than the shade!

Have any of you seen this plant before? I’m sure some of you who used to fish at the mining ponds may have seen this ‘weed’.
