It seems like it's freezing high this year again. Basically 2/3 of my meadow is now covered in sea ice. For reference, the phragmites are roughly along the natural waterline. I'm curious how this affects the plants, and I'll probably know in 20-30 years after following it for some seasons, but if anyone have any insight please let me know. Keep in mind this is brackish water, not true salt water.
Also, I decided to do a false start on the winter phragmite removal. I only went through the ice once, so I would say it went well.

Looks like the muskrats are living well! 😁
Evil magic rituals are to blame.
Scatter some lotus seeds! Lol. There whole M.O. is living dormant in ponds until the reflood, then the seeds germinate and start a new colony
And before you ignorant masses scream “LOTUSEES ARBET NATIVEEEEEE!!!”
There’s literally 2 species. One American and one Indian. PS, the American one is all over North America from Mexico to the Canadian plains, sea to sea.
