and a couple of flower girls
Actually I was fertilizing the plants in the "big" tank and pinching back the pads cause I had about 90% coverage or more. Some of the stems on the Pink Ribbon were approx 4' long. This causes the pads to float away from the pot and leave bare places. I place my Arc En Ceil pots touching the Pink Ribbon pots to give the appearance of "fuller" plants. I like the looks of the pink blooms with the varigated pads also. One pad is nearly all pink.
The pads I pinched
and NOW
First tropical blooms of the season...unknown

Wow look at all those buds! Your pond looks great. How much coverage by pads do you like? 90% too much? I may have to get outside to do some pinching!

I try to maintain 60% to 75% coverage. More than that and there isn't any room to feed and watch the fish.
For me, it is just easier to clean up things while I fertilize. The dead and dying blooms and pads make the water "yucky" also.

I have noticed the larger spread on Pink Ribbon. Good idea about putting another plant to fill in!!
Great photos -- love your containers.

I really like your use of the old-fashioned stock tank! Very nicely done.
