I came looking for the fish after seeing your frozen pond. It had lots of plant interest both in and out of the water. Very nice - I enjoyed the photo -can't stop got to continue my search for your fish. Bye.

Sorry Pauline, I don't know the variety of the lilly. The other floating plant is water hyacinth, but I wouldn't recommend that one as it's not hardy and multiplys very fast during summer - I had to fish some out as it was overpowering the lilly. Have you seen my blogs about the pond?

Eh no I'll have to have a look. I was wondering if your lily was pygmaea rubra, or Aurora as they were the red/pink ones I was looking at. Your pond is lovely by the way. See what you mean about the nasturtitiuns, nice effect

I don't know Pauline - I even went back to the nursery and they showed me pictures and everything, and we still couldn't work out what it was! I think we decided it wasn't pygmaea, as that's smaller - very small in fact. I've taken an up to date photo of my pond, but haven't uploaded it yet....maybe tomorrow...time...time.... lol
