Hi everyone! This is my first year winterizing my pond plants so I hope I am doing things correctly! Thought I would post here as I know that you guys will be able to answer my questions.
My pond is only about 2.5 ft. deep and and we are having freezes now. Due to this fact, I cut my water lily and water iris back and moved them indoors a couple weeks ago before the first frost. They are in a tote with water in a dim/dark room and I cut them back before bringing them in. My lily now has small red leaves. Is this normal? As for my water iris, it appears that it has grown some after trimming back and those leaves are yellow. Have I done anything wrong here, I have babied that iris all summer and hate to lose it now. Your thoughts?
