Giant duckweed is a larger, more manageable version of the regular duckweed you see sneaking everywhere in the aquarium trade. This type has beautiful purple undersides as well!
"Spirodela polyrhiza" is the largest type of duckweed (although tiny at 1cm), and is native to Florida. Ours is homegrown in Kansas!
One portion is equal to 10+ plantlets, many already budding! This is plenty to start a 10 gallon tank.

2oz portion is roughly a small condiment cup size.
As I like to keep real ecosystems in my aquariums, there's always the possibility of harmless snail or dwarf shrimp hitchhikers!
