Jander Posted May 14, 2003 Share Posted May 14, 2003 Here it is. I took it two days ago...It's the first of two that are blooming right now. I'm hoping to get some purple ones this year, so we'll see Link to post Share on other sites

mmanya Posted May 14, 2003 Share Posted May 14, 2003 yes it is - you take it while IN the pond ? Link to post Share on other sites
Jander Posted May 14, 2003 Author Share Posted May 14, 2003 What you can't see is that all of my pond is in a 10 foot wading pool, so I just squatted down next to it to get that one. I think my photography is getting better... I've got a good one of the second lily that is gorgeous, so I'll have to get that one on the net soon... Link to post Share on other sites

dave Posted May 14, 2003 Share Posted May 14, 2003 Very nice. I lived on Water Lily Way for four years, and never saw a water lily in bloom. Maybe because there weren't any ponds nearby ... Link to post Share on other sites

Jander Posted May 15, 2003 Author Share Posted May 15, 2003 Hehehe...it's already my new background I don't care...I'd be flattered if you'd like to keep it. Just don't try and sell it Yeah, I've got some more, cuz I take them daily, so I'll have to get some more of 'em up (it takes a while on dial up ). Woo Hooo!!! My purple lily came out!!! I love my purple lilies!!! It's the most gorgeous of three out right now. Looks like I'll have about 8 more pretty soon too No Mercy: My pansies are out too Link to post Share on other sites
mmanya Posted May 15, 2003 Share Posted May 15, 2003 have them in sunken pots ? what do you do about insect control ? mosquitoes must love you ... Link to post Share on other sites
Jander Posted May 15, 2003 Author Share Posted May 15, 2003 Yeah, at first they were in smaller pots, so I had to transplant them two years ago into big pots...now they just make little plantlets that get nutrients from the main plant, but are plants of their own...pretty cool. Like I said, I've got 30+ fish, about 10 of them big, the rest medium sized...they take care of the skeeters pretty well. Link to post Share on other sites
