I added some hornwort to my 1000 gal pond, and it has really filled in well. My question is - will it over -winter? [I am in the washington dc area]. Thanks.

The net says zones 4 - 9
The tips will shorten and thicken in fall, before falling off and settling on the pond floor to spend the winter as buds. In spring, these buds grow to repopulate the pond.
