Hey everyone! Happy news, sad news

[karen J]

The good news is that we've finally completed our move from Il to NC. The bad news is that (because of the time frame) I left EVERYTHING at the old pond. All my lilies, lotuses, dwarf lilies, several varieties of horsetail, marestail variegated sweet flag... everything. I have a whole new canvas of plants to learn about, and will have to scope out the pond scene here. Maybe go with something small. Don't know if these pics will show, but this is what I left behind:

The buyers said "Oh our dog will love playing in there!"     Life goes on. On the plus side, I found extensive parrot feather in a ditch and giant pennywort by the river. Locals call them weeds--- I paid a fortune for them up north.

Guess I forgot how to post photos here! Been a while!

Beautiful pond you left behind, but life goes on, and another pond begins. Andrew Davis is in North Carolina but I am not sure where he is nor do I know where you are. Haha! He has a wide variety of plants if you want to contact him. Enjoy your new home.

Ahhh yes, good old Mr. Davis! I remember him. Thanks for the nice words, I'm going to miss that pond. We're in New Bern now.

Sorry to hear about the left behind plants & it is too bad the new owners probably won't appreciate all your work.

It will be fun for you to collect some new plants though.  Good luck with your new pond.
