Repotting water lilies
« on: May 04, 2007, 07:56:00 PM »
There's nothing like a nice cool day to repot the w.lilies & maybe divide a few . And while you're at it a nice dip in the pond.......ya right !   :o ...that water was nasty ! & where did that rock come from ( the one I tripped over ).... lol
I never seen that a comming......  o(
Clumsy me was at it again ! There I was repotting my w.lilies & the next thing I know I do a nose dive in the pond....YECK ! That water was nasty too  o(, I've got to clean it out sometime this weekend ....lucky me...  ::)

Sultan had 7 bud's comming up on it , I cannot wait for it to bloom ! There's a white one ready to open & my Comanche has several bud's too .

Well why not take another swim to check the name???

Seriously, hope you didn't hurt yourself.. that's a good way to throw your back out.

Make sure you have no cuts or scratches please.  I won't go in to it now, but I got a nasty infection a few years ago.  They never could determine where I got it.  Yes lot's of culture studies.
I had to have a "Pericardial Effusion."  20 years ago it could have been fatal.

I wear chest highs these days.

I was sittin here laughing at bunny, but not cause she acually fell in the pond, but because I fell in and I was soooo mad.  When I thin kabout how I looked goin in, I'm sure it was halarioius. I'm glad I was the ONLY one home, and yes I did go take a shower I smelled sooo rotten...ughhhh     I hope your ok bunny, don't want u to hurt yourself, you may get so mad you wanna tear the pond up... hahaha   Gina
