The plants around the pond are now staring to fill out and I have cleaned the blanket weed out of the water, the Water Lily is sending new leaves up, and the pondplants I sent for from the internet, Baidellia Ranunculoides, Bog Arum,andMimulus Ringens. are all showing new growth. I have Water Hyacynths too, the only thing missing is my Frogs, they havent showed up yet,but plenty of time lol

I'm playing 'catch up' on pics, Carole and am so pleased to see this one. Your pond and plants are looking so good now. Interesting to read that Homebird has masses of Tadpoles. We were given about thirty of them and now there isn't one to be seen! One plant was found knocked into the pond in the morning, can't explain it at all. : o ((

Sorry to hear your Tadpoles disappeared Shirley, wonder if something ate them and knocked your plant into the water in the process , spooky!, just back from hols so Im on a big catchup too lol.

Ha ha, Pp, I really must do a blog about the pond one day! We DO have Tadpoles, well, more like tiny little frogs now. So pleased to find about seven of them swimming along the edges a couple of days ago, so we can only think they stayed at the bottom of the pond for some reason. Hope you enjoyed your holiday. : o ))

Pleased you have tadpoles, soon be little froggies! Had a good holiday but the weather was terrible torrential rain and gale force winds, but we eventually got out and enjoyed the stunnning scenery;0)

What a shame you didn't have glorious sunshine ... glad you got out eventually. : o ))
30 May, 2011
Just starting a blog on the holiday so you can see despite the weather we did get out and about and enjoyed the holiday;0)

I'll keep my eyes peeled for it . . .
