I am always interested in pond plants that bloom.  Dont see many people post those here... anyone else have any that I just gotta have?  Blooming now I have purple pickerel, yerba mensa, siberian pink cups, purple G. iris, variegated iris.

Mexican Petunia, Pink Bells, White Rain lilies, white Spider Lilies, Bacopa are some of the marginals that I've had/have that bloom.  Lizard's Tail is "blooming" but not a flower.

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

 o(:-) Oh Tink! You have the most beautiful pond I've seen.  Really, it is so lush and gorgeous I could look at pictures of it forever.  I think your whole hand must be green and not just your thumb, you've done a fantastic job with your garden.

That first picture should be a postcard.  You can make it into a Christmas or birthday card and send it out to each member.  I like the purple pickerel and the pink cups.

I like all your green and the flowers.  I have perinneals all around my pond and coming down both sides of the waterfalls.  Blooming time is staggered so there is always color throughout the season.  Above the pond is a white grape arbor with roses on each side and the whole thing looks really nice.  I love watching stuff grow and I love the sound of the water.  Your pond looks serene and relaxing.

Tink,
I am absolutely in awe of what you have done with your place over the last several years. I can't even imagine how it would look being there. How great for you to sit, relax (you do that, right? ;))  and look out over what you have created.

Stunning O0

This is my favorite bloom by my pond.

Tink, you have a great great pond. Thanks for showing. One can sit next to it and spend the whole day (without pond work ofcourse:))

Some pics of my pond also since the plants start growing up.

The only marginal plant I have blooming yet is the yellow iris.

Sorry Tink, I think you got every plant available!  ;D ;)

Your pond is absolutely beautiful!  The only plant I can think of that you are missing is the water hawthorne that I still haven't sent to you!  :P

Steve, gorgeous mass of Japanese Irises!   :o
Tugo, Jealous  :D you have a million more lily blooms than my dimpy lily pond.

Beautiful as usual Tink. You sure do know how to put it all together.



Only half of my lilies are blooming as of yet, marginals are in another pond and are behind this year.
