Thanks Everyone. I think the roots have burst out of their basket so spreading like wild fire as the pond is clay lined .... I'm not complaining though. Lots more to come. The pink ones are only just in bud.
BB: Yes, lets hope for the long, hot summer :-)

What a lovely problem to have Dawn - the prospect of having to thin out water lilys have you seen the price of them ?

26 May, 2009

 

Hi Jane/Ray. To be honest, we've only bought one - a deep pink one - the rest we robbed from my mum's pond and they've done really well. I think the pond benefits from the shade they give too and I would guess the wildlife like them :)
