Gosh Tink I don't really know.  Every time I try to count I later realize that I left out one.  I think it's 9 on my land and I have several others that neighbors will let me fence off and use.  When I finish the big island pond with turtle island in it I will have many acres of water. And that is just the beginning I have spots for around 35 to 40 more ponds on my land.  And I'm not talking about lots of little ponds a dozer blade wide dug into the ground for production reasons.  I'm talking about sculpted natural looking ponds, a few of them about an acre in size and a few half acre to quarter acre size. And smaller like the valve pond above.

Good Lord, how could you possibly take care of that many, no doubt you plan on growing lilies in these ponds of the future. I always check out all your post, your lilies are awesome.

So are you planning to go commercial by sell lilies & marginals?  You definitely have the property & ambition to do so.

There is never enough room for all of the water lilies that I want ;-)

That's the idea Kat.   But mostly it's an outgrowth of my obsession.  Like you with your business, making some money will make it possible for me to make more ,better lilies to satisfy my addiction and not go broke at the same time.
   Have      to      make      more       lilies     or     will      suffer     withdrawal     symptoms.......
