Not a good idea Irish.The wild water lilies are much too vigorous for a garden pond.Best to get a cultivated one.By the way any good fishing to be had in the canal?

Yep some of the best fish stories my Dad ever told involved a pike that was too BIG to land!! (i.e. almost the same length as the canoe!) got carried away with the fish and forgot to ask...is it just the perspective ...or are those leaves arrow shaped? I love wild anything...need hip waders or scuba gear to fish them out of the swamps over'eer. lol

It is commonly called the Spatter Dock in the UK and dont even think of growing it unless you've got a lake.Something I've learnt by bitter experience.
