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.

Hello sid i've just found your pond!!! What is the name of your water lily and the other plants you have, please?

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
