Best and cheapest chemical would be an aquatic lableled 2,4-D such as Platoon or Hardball. Use a good surfactant, and if applying by boat or in windy conditions use a silicone based surfactant to keep the chemical on the waters surface in contact with the plant. Otherwise waves will just wash the herbicide off the foliage.

Any questions drop me a pm, or check out the pm Chevy sent you.

get rid of it quickly or the ringnecks will take over your pond; they love the seeds inside the plant
