The flowers in the bigger tanks seem bigger to me. I have noticed with water plants in general if you put them in a bigger container they just seem to grow bigger.

In the winter, I cut the stems back after they are all brown and dead looking. That seems to be around October in Claremore, OK. I havecut stems above the water line and cut even with about the rim of the pot. The reason I cut at this level and way is so that the stems will not poke a hole in the plastic when I cover them for winter. I cover the pots with clear plastic. I wanna say 6 mil (??) I got the roll at Lowe's and it was about $26.

I have some other containers I'll try and post pictures of another time.
