I learned about Blue-eyed grass recently and had to get some. I've also got a bunch of seeds I'm going to try to grow.

This is my pond today, working on refurbing it a little bit. Still have to finish the waterfall but mostly finished. Just hoping the vines will grow and cover the fence.
Water is dirty because of all the dirt i dropped in there fixing the liner and removing the top layer of rocks.

Nice looking!

Here is my pond today, iris out, plants springing into life. Lots of blanket weed which is driving me mad! Will it ever go away?

We had a very hard rain last night so I went outside this morning to pick up the debris that had blown onto the net over the pond... this is what I found.

Our first waterlily bloom of the season!

This mighty tuber (about 6 inches long) was growing OUTSIDE the pot (I didn't groom lilies last year) so we broke it off and plunked it in the shallow waters of our tadpole holding tank and stuck a rock over it. The bud was already there when the transplant happened, but this morning, it FINALLY opened. All our other lilies (some the same variety, others different) only just have leaves at the moment.

I didn't even remember buying this Japanese iris! Pleasant surprise to see it bloom on Monday. The bog is going crazy.

If you could protect your pond you can get a pump sprayer and put bleach and water in it and spray it on the fence and it will bring the color back and it will look like new .The best is to wet the pressure treated wood first and the spray it with a good quality bleach and water .2 cups of bleach to a 2 gallon sprayer usually does a great job

Thats interesting, I will have to try that. Thanks. That is if it ever stops raining here.
