There was one in a rip-off nursery near me that was about 24" and it cost $3500!
Garden Photos - Part 27
I like my $3.99, thank you very much!!!!
Think I paid about $7 for my little ones. Lost them all last year.
I debate whether I should bring them into the greenhouse for the winter, or not.
How deep is the pond?
Mostly 1 foot, but the deepest is 3 .... just under 3,000 gal
3 is easily deep enough for them to survive. You just have to keep a hole open all the time - use a heater.
I only worry about a power failure.
Of course, I should have a generator, so I don't have to worry.
The fish will survive for a little while without the hole - so once the power comes back on the heater will melt a hole in the ice again and they should be fine. I lost power for 3 days two winters ago and all my fish survived the winter.
Hey folks! Having fun getting caught up on everyone's beautiful blooms. Had family visiting and came down with Bronchitis so the garden's been on the back burner. Getting better now! Here's what's blooming...
I keep trying out green flowers, this one I started from seed, Zinnia 'Envy'.
I'm loving this Canna 'Cleopatra', looks like the back side will bloom red. Will post a new shot when it opens up.
Zinnia Thumbelina from seed.
Hard to photograph this patch. I have white Alyssum and Blue Lobelia from seed. They are so tiny that they blur in the breeze.
DL don't know the name - very pretty though - double blooming peach coloured one!
Another DL - this one is so cheery looking to me!
Dahlia, not sure of the name currently.
Lantana with visitor
Beautiful shots all, as always. I love all of the lillies and daylillies.
Onewish, I finally remember where I bought that huge lilly from, I think that I will help to identify it when I have time to go rumaging through their catalog her soon. But, I'm 90% sure that I bought it from brent and becky's bulbs. Maybe you bought something from them as well? Anyhow. I hope to have time to do that tomorrow night. We'll see.
Willie that red hibiscus is amazing.
Thanks everyone.....the Hydrangea is supposed to be ....

Lovely Jo Ann, I really like those trellis!!

Redchick has them too and raves about them.
Mine might have to be moved to a sunnier location.There is half day where they are now but this year has been a "wait and see"for everything.
your gardens are wonderful.
Wish Pirl lived closer.She is such a good teacher.
Yes, Pirl is amazing and one of the first people to welcome me here at DG.
