Welcome back, BV! Sorry about the visitor to your pond.

You have a Mrs. Perry D. Slocum !! It is magnificent ....
Isn't the aroma intoxicating?
Congratulations ...
and thanks a million for posting. ;-)

My Lotus has bloomed, http://darofamily.com/jeff/easyurl/pondphotos.htm.
Click on July 28th for pictures. I also think I have a raccoon or other
critter visiting. Some of plants are knocked over, and two of the planters
are moved off their shelves. Also found some interesting droppings near
the
pond edge.
