I was able to get all of my plants put in the pond over the weekend, and it definitely filled things in nicely. This is my first season doing a full planting like this, so I'm excited to see how it works out. I especially enjoy the parrot feather, and the fish really seem to enjoy circling within the lily shoots. I couldn't believe that the parrot feather grew 6-8" since just last Saturday to be able to break the surface. I think I might be going back for another one or two of those. My hope is the the the creeping jenny along the left hand side will fill in quickly, and cover some of that exposed liner.
